Football, Periods, and Fundraising: How to Ensure All Girls Have Access to Safe SanitationJoin Kirsty van den Bulk as she interviews Lissa Griffiths and George Osoya about the importance of safe and hygienic sanitation for girls who play football. Lissa, the director of Supporting Girls Football, will discuss her recent visit to Kenya, where she was inspired to create a fundraising campaign to rebuild the girl's sanitation block at Rera Primary School in Kisii. She was shocked by the health and safety risks and the barrier it posed to girls attending school and gaining the benefits from sports. Lissa is also about to launch a FIFA Women's World Cup campaign called "Are you sitting comfortably?" where venues in the hospitality and catering industry are asked to put a poster on customer toilet doors to raise awareness and vital funds. This episode will explore the challenges girls face when they don't have access to safe sanitation, and how we can all help make a difference.
