IMPACT REPORT
Fresh off the press is our first impact report. We want to let you inside the company and know the impact DAME has had so far, and our vision for the future. Read the full report here or scroll down for the highlights.
WE SAID 'LATERS' TO 2.5 MILLION APPLICATORS
By 2022 we aim to eliminate 15% of the 1.3 billion UK applicators that end up in landfill or the ocean every year.
BLACK, WHITE, AND RED ALL OVER
We had everyone talking about periods. From glossy magazines to national newspapers, news stories about DAME's positive periods were featured in over 200 publications
TIME TO COTTON ON
We used 100% organic cotton in our tampons and absolutely nothing else.
FIRST EVER CARBON NEUTRAL+ CERTIFICATION
For every tonne of CO2 we emitted we invested in preventing two tonnes being added elsewhere. We eliminated the equivalent of 115 flights from London to New York.
WE WERE LAUNCHED BY YOU
We were crowdfunded by 5,000 amazing women and men in 53 countries
WE'RE PROUD OF OURSHELVES
From Kickstarter to 3 nationwide supermarket listings. We're on a mission to make positive periods just as accessible as the major brands.
HABITS FOR A LIFETIME
95% of DAME customers were using throw away applicators before switching to a reusable applicator. 70% now use it for every tampon, every period. We want to get that number up to 100.
WE'RE CHANGING GOVERNMENT POLICY
We lobbied the government and donated products to nationwide schools programs updating period education in schools.
