Figures are indicative planning costs for the current financial year. We will confirm exact budgets in a written proposal for your funding round.

Why this investment works

A clear case, without the jargon.

A gap councils already recognise

Menstrual education sits unevenly across PSHE, and menopause support is missing from most local employer policies. This is a defined, fundable gap with a named lead delivering it.

Outcomes you can report upwards

Every project has a stated unit cost, beneficiary count and evaluation method, so a councillor, trustee or CSR lead can evidence the return without chasing us.

Community interest structure

As a CIC, surplus is reinvested into bursary delivery. Earned income from employer workshops subsidises school sessions — your grant stretches further than the grant itself.

Ready to scale carefully

Facilitator training, materials and safeguarding processes are already in place, so additional funding converts into delivered sessions within the same term.
