Please see below a message from CWVYS Members Plan International UK
Plan International UK has an exciting opportunity for an organisation(s) to join our Period Peers Programme in partnership with Nurofen’s See My Pain Campaign.
We are looking to collaborate with an organisation(s) which empowers young people to take a leading role in solutions to issues that affect their lives. We are looking to fund an organisation that is passionate about smashing the taboo and stigma of periods, so that girls and young people can be confident when it comes to their periods.
Organisations can apply for either £5000 or £10,000 to deliver the Period Peers Programme which aims to recruit 14-24 years olds to become Period Proud Peers. The Period Proud Peers will coordinate menstrual health related activities which build young people’s knowledge and confidence in managing their periods, reduce the stigma and encourage young people to seek help should they need it. Period Proud Peers will have a handbook with example activities and information to support them in their role, which has been co-created with Period Peers in our pilot programme.
Please see this ToR document for more information.
