    Why Menstruation Matters with Katrina McDonnell (@katrina_mcd)

    I spoke to Katrina McDonnell, founder of Menstruation Matters about everything from periods, to imposter syndrome, to what it's like to have changed the law for people with periods right across the North of Ireland. Katrina is a force of nature, her unwavering commitment to making life better for women and girls in Northern Ireland has not only means that everyone now gets access to free period products in all public buildings in the North, but she's also working on a campaign to ensure kids can go to the toilet when they need during school hours, all the while she works in campaigns for The Good Law Project! ****** You won't be shocked to know that this podcast *isn't* professionally produced.

    SUSPEND SUSPENDED SENTENCES IN N.I.

    Women are being failed by the Northern Irish judicial system as violent criminals who attack women are disproportionately handed suspended sentences, leaving women vulnerable to reattack and telling men that violence against women and girls is essentially decriminalised. Writer and journalist Goodwill Cxunting compares three cases of domestic abuse in the Northern Irish judicial system with three cases in England. Hosted on Acast.
