One Minute Brief of the Day:

Campaign to stop #TamponTax

Today we've got an interesting collaboration which we hope will make for a great brief! Let's see if the #ombles can make a difference today. 

Remember to tweet to @oneminutebriefs @bloodydisgrace @fullsixlondon with the hashtag #bloodydisgrace for the chance to win prizes. See below for info and links.

WOMEN BLEED ONCE A MONTH. AND THEN PAY TAX ON IT.

There are 3.52 billion women in the world that will tell you, that menstrual hygiene products are essential to lead a functional, normal life.

However, several governments don’t think they are. They deem these items not essential, and tax them accordingly.

This is a #BloodyDisgrace.

We have created, and are launching a global campaign and petition, directed at the United Nations, to raise awareness of this unfair tax. 

We want every government to act together to declare that menstrual hygiene products are essential goods. This campaign has been created and supported by FullSIX London (@FullSIXLondon)

Every thing you need to know:

We want OMBLES to get BLOODY creative with this. We will select 1 winner, and their ad will become a part of our campaign. 

There are some great prizes up for grabs. FullSIX London will 3D print you your very own personalised trophy. And, you will be sent a very, very special cake based surprise.
