I’m so lucky to work with incredible people & orgs in Southampton, championing health & arts projects.
Thank you @KathWT for your kind words, I’m so excited for the next stages of this project & developing the R&D into a full scale production with our talented theatre company!

We attended a presentation from a @theatre_life2 youth-led project, 'Create and Innovate', and were blown away by the powerful campaigns they shared. Check out Chloe's, questioning why we feed the taboo that still exists by creating wacky names for periods. #menstruation
