Join our campaign to end the taxation of sanitary products:
a good our government considers to be a 'luxury'
Jill Piebiak
Jill started, and won, our Canadian sister campaign 'Government of Canada — No Tax on Tampons: A campaign to remove the GST charged on menstruation products.' Canadia currently does not tax sanitary products, thanks to Jill!
Collectif Georgette Sand
Collectif Georgette Sand is a French feminist organisation which, amongst many other things, runs our French sister campaign 'Règles et TVA : le tampon on l'a en travers de la gorge !'. The French Government taxes sanitary products at 20%.
TSUNO
TSUNO is an Australian organisation founded to support vulnerable girls and women around the world. They run our Australian sister campaign 'Stop The Sanitary Tax: It's Unsanitary'. In Australia, sanitary tax is set at 10%.
Chiara Capraro
Chiara runs our Italian sister campaign 'Le mestruazioni non si tassano: IVA al minimo sugli assorbenti!'. She is protesting against the 20% tax rate that Italy places on santiary products.
Penelope Kemekenidou
Penelope runs our German sister campaign 'Senken Sie die Tamponsteuer #tampontax' fighting against Germany's 19% tax on santiary products. Penelope also runs the 'Stop Blind Sexism' campaign.
Meet the Team
Laura Argyropulo Coryton
Laura runs the UK campaign 'Stop Taxing Periods. Period'. Around the UK, sanitary tax is considered 'luxurous' enough to be taxed at 5% whilst maintaining private jets and eating crocodile meat is 'essential' enough to avoid tax altogether.
Julia Argyropulo Coryton
Julia is the creative director of our UK campaign. She designed this website, created Sam our new period mascot, and has worked with Laura closely since the petition was launched in May 2014.
Atticus Kidd
Atticus acts as statistician for the UK campaign. He prepares and presents our numerical evidence and arguments, and offers a male perspective when necessary.
