Today is #WorldSuicidePreventionDay2024
There are so many things that drive people towards suicide or suicidal ideation but each and every one of us can make a difference. Let someone know you care, it could save a life 💗💗 #EndGBV

You know you’re back in Scotland when every cafe, dentist, doctors etc has a selection of free menstrual products 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🩸

[Bloody Amazing @bamazingedu]

This week we visited a North Lanarkshire primary school where we delivered our menstrual cycle awareness workshop to a P6 class. The young people were amazing and so engaged. They used their whiteboards to answer multiple choice questions around period care in a Scottish context

While the world celebrates #MenstrualHygieneDay the women and girls in Gaza are living through a nightmare that never seems to end.

We must end this suffering and call for a #CeasefireNOW!

Menstrual health is a human right.

Yet, millions lack access to menstrual products and adequate facilities.

On Tuesday's #MenstrualHygieneDay & every day, @UNFPA works to improve menstrual health, ensuring dignity for all. https://t.co/ZcNBKr8sPW
