The ethos is to collect locally and give back to local charities in the community helping to give dignity to those less fortunate. Sadly, hygiene poverty comes with a social stigma that affects all areas of life, work, school and relationships.

Lack of access to hygiene products impacts confidence, self-esteem and prospects in those who are most vulnerable. People miss out on employment and promotion opportunities. Women find themselves housebound because they can’t afford period products, children skip school because they don’t have clean uniform or PE kit.

Any money raised will be used to purchase hygiene products which will be delivered to charitable organisations, enabling them to reach out to individuals in need.
