Community Partners

partners across the UK…

Working with community partners across the UK.

We’re so pleased to work with you to end period poverty in the UK.

We work with over 150 community partners who ensure that our period products are received and given to people in their communities who need a little extra help each month.

Our community partners are spread across the country, and offer a range of services. They are youth groups, women’s centres, food banks, outreach services, health clinics – fantastic people doing really amazing things in their communities. We’re delighted to welcome you to the team!

What you can expect from us:

Ethically sourced, organic, cruelty free period products.
A friendly and professional service.
Support to amplify the amazing work you do.
A strong, reliable and confidential communication.
Dedication to ending period poverty in the UK together.

What we expect from you:

We ask all of our community partners to agree to the following principles, to ensure dignified, barrier free access to products:

Period products will be free for all users with no questions asked. No one will be asked for anything in exchange for free products, fill in a form, give their name or any other details when accessing products.
Period products will be available in unlimited quantities.
No one will be required to trade food stamps or points in exchange for products.
Period products will be accessible to people of all genders, in a discreet manner. As far as possible, products are available in gender neutral toilets and disabled toilets.

If you have any questions, you can say hey to Kate and Hannah – our community partner team – who are always happy to help!

Please make sure you are an organisation working in the community before you send an enquiry; Hey Girls are unable to donate direct to individuals.

How it works…

Reorder stock…

When you are running low, please send an email to donations@heygirls.co.uk to let us know what products you would like, we will always do our best to accommodate you. It’s good for you to talk to us about how much stock you are able to donate so we can keep you going with a steady stream of donations and manage your expectations.

Keep in touch…

We are collecting case studies of best practice across the UK and would be delighted to hear any feedback about how it’s going and what works well for you. Please keep us in the loop! We are also running a Lunch and Learn every other month, this is an opportunity for you to come and speak to us about how you are offering free products to your community, ask us any questions and connect with your Hey Girls community partners. If you would like to attend a Lunch and Learn, please email donations@heygirls.co.uk

Shout about it!

Feel free to shout about your great work on social media and in the press – the more we raise awareness, the faster we can end period poverty.

The practicalities…

Have a think about the best way to distribute products in your setting. Many of our community partners use baskets to hold products, and leave them in the toilets for people to help themselves. Some place these in individual cubicles, others in the main toilet area.

Bearing in mind the code of practice, please do not require clients to ask for products at reception or sign a form. If you run a drop-in service, consider creating a table of period products (perhaps in a discreet corner) for people to help themselves. We can provide you with posters and signs if you need them.

Brief staff…

Please ensure that all staff and volunteers (including men) are aware of the programme and the reasons behind it, so they can speak to people if they need support.

Raise awareness…

You might want to put your official Hey Girls community partner logo on your social media, on your window or in your local paper. Your local council might even be able to help you advertise that you offer free period products!

Get social!

Hey Girls is on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn at @HeyGirlsUK – please follow us! If you don’t want us to miss any of your posts, use our handle or tag us to ensure you appear in our notifications.

Here are some sample posts to inspire you:

We’re delighted to be an official @heygirlsuk community partner. For every box sold, Hey Girls donates a box to someone in need in the UK. By working together, we can end #PeriodPoverty!

We’re passionate about ending #PeriodPoverty in our community, which is why we’re pleased to announce we are now an official @heygirlsuk community partner. Together we can #EndPeriodPoverty

Stay local!

Make friends with your local paper. Local press love stories from local people who are doing good things. They also love good photographs. Once you’ve got your donations all set up and ready to go, why not take a photo of your staff with your donations, then phone or email them to let them know?

Lunch & Learn

Come and meet your donation community!

Join us for a virtual cup of tea and chat to learn from each other. We’ll be talking about all-things periods and best practice as a Hey Girls donation partner.

At our new Lunch & Learn sessions, you are invited to pop the kettle on and join Hey Girls co-founder Kate and other community organisations virtually. You are welcome to just listen but if you would like to share please do.
