Our Story

In October 2020, a small group of women met to socialize and learn to sew.

Weekly discussions about the worsening financial situation and lack of work opportunities motivated us to produce reusable period pads. These are used just like disposable pads with the added benefit of being washed and reused for up to 3 years. 

As friends and family members requested more pads, we saw the significant need and acceptability, inspiring us to increase production to ensure wider and more sustained access to period products.

Our pads are designed to be washed and reused for 2.5 to 3 years with one pack saving around 700+ disposable pads from reaching landfill.

Evidence of their Impact

The top layer is a soft, non staining and highly absorbent fleece (60% cotton, 40% polyester) with cotton wings.

The 2nd layer is of the same absorbent fleece.

A 3rd layer of nylon is included to prevent leakages.

Lastly it is all held together with colourful cotton back which also makes them look great!
