This team acknowledges that periods aren’t taboo, but also recognises the financial burden they can pose. They’re on a mission to destigmatise periods and improve accessibility to vital sanitary products like pads, tampons and wipes in their community, through attention-grabbing, vibrantly packaged baskets placed in public spaces and bathrooms throughout Shepparton — making essential items available at no cost.
The team will partner with the Mooroopna Community Centre, placing their first basket in the Food Share Hub — integrating menstrual hygiene products seamlessly into a space where locals already access free food and community support.
