Manage episode 313109101 series 3259079
Hello and welcome to the Cheer Up Luv Podcast hosted by Eliza Hatch!
Today I am speaking to the inspirational activist, Amika George. Amika is the founder of the #FreePeriods campaign, which she began at the age of 17. In 2017 she started a petition campaigning for free period products in schools across the UK, and in 2020 it came into action, with the Government implementing schemes around schools uk wide!
In this episode we speak about Amika's journey into activism, challenging the stigma surrounding periods, and discuss harassment in bars and clubs. To support Amika's work visit:

*Trigger Warning*
We will be discussing an experience of sexual harassment towards the end of the episode.
