Red Box is a scheme to get sanitary products to girls that need them for NO cost. They operate across different parts of the country, and have branches across the North West including Prescot and Whiston. Karl Duvall and his wife are volunteers for Red Box, and take products into schools so that girls don’t have to miss classes because of so-called “period poverty”. He joined Mick Coyle to talk about the work they do, and the impact it makes. One school even reported a 2% increase in attendance based purely on access to sanitary wear. The project is always looking for donations and volunteers and you can find out more via www.redboxproject.org
