Over the last couple of years we have been busy trying to raise awareness of the use of reusable period products and also educating people on the effect of single use products on the environment. Our Ambassador, Gigi Ermoyenous, along with our Youth Ambassadors, has been encouraging friends and peer groups to “trial” these products. The feedback from many of these young people has been very positive and Gigi gives her own feelings on the use of these products.
“I have been using reusable products since starting my periods at the age of 11. I use a mix of menstrual cup, washable pads and period pants. I enjoy using these reusable products for the comfort and ease as well as the environmental benefits. The washable period pads supplied by Period Power are really easy to use due to their soft fabric. They are comfortable, easy to clean and fast drying compared to some of my homemade ones”.
