A sanitary product that, actually, is more sanitary.
For far too long, females in Malawi have had to use cloth rags for their periods, because they simply could not afford any kind of menstrual product. A packet of ten disposable pads in Malawi costs £2 – the equivalent of a day’s salary.
Cups are more hygienic, more comfortable, and better for the environment alternative to cloth rags and a more sustainable, comfortable and cost-saving option to disposable pads and tampons. In Malawi providing disposable pads is not the answer.
Don’t flush the environment away.
