Code Red Project
Code Red Project
New for 2020
From Families 1st For Additional Needs comes a new project, The Code Red Project (CRP). Here at CRP, we believe that every person deserves an education in their menstrual and sexual health, regardless of their age, gender or ability.
On many occasions, education providers have failed to educate the core lessons and values of puberty, menstrual and sexual health. Alongside this issue, also sees a nationwide problem of period poverty.
Here at The Code Red Project we provide a confidential listening service to those who need it most. We also offer advice and education on menstrual health, puberty, inappropriate behaviour in additional needs, period poverty and menstruation. Regardless of your age, gender, additional need or situation we are here to help. If you or someone you know could use a listening ear or advice get in touch today.
