Girls embrace the Red Tent
Wonderful afternoon spent with some girls from Gateway Sixth Form College, sharing research into the challenges of menstrual hygiene management. They were very keen to have a forum to discuss all things to do with periods and fell in love with the Red Tent idea when it was pitched to them. The Red Tent; a space furnished with cushions and fairy lights. Participants can share menarche stories, or cultural myths, celebrations or taboos. It could be a private space for discussion or to ask questions.
