Psychological study from adam&eveDDB and PRETTYBIRD director Margot Bowman follows a girl caught unprepared for her period at school
A psychological study is at the heart of a new campaign by Hey Girls, the social enterprise founded by Celia Hodson to tackle period poverty. The idea, created by adam&eveDDB, revolves around a film called ‘Seeing Red’ which has been carefully crafted to evoke anger that motivates positive action.
The proposed dictionary definition of period poverty , as shown in the film, is a lack of safe access to period products due to financial or social constraints. Period poverty affects 1 in 10 in the UK and surged in 2020 during the COVID pandemic. In fact, a survey by the charity Plan International UK showed that as many as one third of 14 to 21s in the UK struggled to access or afford period products during lockdown.
