Code Red – Period Products

What is Code Red?

Code Red is an MTU Period Dignity project that tackles period poverty and taboo, and is another step towards equality across MTU. The project provides free sanitary products in 60 locations across the University and is a collaborative project, involving staff, students, and local businesses.

The Code Red bathroom dispensers, stocked with sustainable single-use sanitary products, have been developed by West Cork start-up Riley, who provide an eco-friendly period product subscription service.

The Students’ Union also have a stock of sanitary products in the reception cupboard which students are welcome to drop in to collect what they need free of charge.
