We want you to get the care you deserve.
Our mission & values.
To provide compassionate and inclusive menstrual health care that honours the dignity, autonomy, and mana of every person we serve. Grounded in our values, we strive to create a safe and welcoming space where clients can feel empowered and supported to live their best lives. We are committed to fostering strong relationships with our service users, our community, other health professionals, and to providing care that is holistic.
We recognise the pursuit of menstrual health is an ongoing journey, one that requires a holistic approach that takes into account the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of a person's life. We are working to break down the barriers that have long prevented people from accessing the care and support they need.
