Yorkits is a hands-on community project bringing women and girls from York and the region together, to make feminine hygiene kits which change the lives of young girls by keeping them in education during menstruation. The workshops are a chance for women of all ages to come together to give girls across the globe access to education, health, hygiene and dignity.

The workshops will take place on Thursday 5 March, with sessions taking place at 10am and 1.30pm. All materials and equipment will be provided and refreshments will be available.

Places at the workshops are limited and free tickets need to be booked in advance.
