OUR INITIATIVES & CAMPAIGNS

We are BLOODY DELIGHTED to announce that The Period Place is taking part in One NZ's One Good Kiwi this October! This exciting opportunity allows us to drive change and make a real impact on menstrual equity across Aotearoa. But we need your help to make it happen.

During four vibrant days in February, The Period Place hosted its inaugural festival activation, made possible by the generosity of Splore Festival organisers.

Our aim was to create an inclusive and empowering menstruation space, promoting period equity.

Join the 123 Period! Campaign 100K Stigma-Busting Conversations in 2024.

It’s been a few days since we popped down to see the Prime Minister in her office to talk about periods.

32 people came together including charities, businesses, activists, health professionals, teachers, education providers, product designers and more.

From August 12 to September 8th, The Period Place will receive a donation of 5 cents from the sale of every period product from U By Kotex, Libra, Carefree, Stayfree, Tampax, Oi Organic, Tom Organic, Bonds, Vagisil, Femfresh, Evamay and Essentials. We’ll also receive a further donation of a single period product for every pack sold.

In June 2021, period products became free for all schools in Aotearoa who opted in to the Ikura Manaakitia Te Whare Tangata programme. Funding for the initiative is secured until June 2024, providing a critical window to make a lasting impact on the lives of students. However, with the recent change in government, the future beyond this period remains uncertain.

We partnered up with Countdown for a cycle long campaign to level up the discussion around periods and get bloody legends all around Aotearoa involved.

The Aotearoa Period Hui 2020 was a bloody hit! Thank you to all of our speakers who gave their time, knowledge and expertise to willing share with the collective group!

The Period Place mobilised the Period Relief Packs project quickly during Covid-19, to ensure safe management of periods.

We’re bloody excited to be part of Tend Health’s inaugural Te Wiki Hauora Wāhine/Women’s Health Week, sharing our insights and resources with menstruators (and their allies) across Aotearoa.
Te Wiki Hauora Wāhine/Women’s Health Week raises awareness, educates, encourages and empowers Kiwi women.

The Period Place Teams Up with The New Zealand Food Network to Combat Period Poverty

We reached out to all our Impact Partners, that were still working as an essential service and asked them one thing "how can we help"

The impact of the concept activation as people intentional approached us as they left to share their personal experiences, their appreciation and share what they had learned.

Over 350 people attended our market during the 3 hours we were open with tens of thousands further reached through our social channels.
