Maybe it's the time of year, maybe it's the fact that when we were out of hot water and heating last week, the one saving grace I kept thinking about was that I wasn't having a period. It would have just added extra 'God REALLY?' to the situation.
During that time I did a lot of research on the homeless and simple ways in which we can all help.
In amongst the 12 Days of Giveaways (yes, they're coming) this year, you will find the odd mention of charities/organisations trying to aid those in need.
The Homeless Period has been set up to petition the government to provide sanitary items in homeless shelters, the way they currently provide condoms.
You can take part by either signing the petition, or donating, or both.
