Itโ€™s only ME chatting about totes bags to camera!

This was well scary so be my hype gals! Iโ€™m channelling Bec my good pal over at and our little gorge scouse queen Rach because they do this so naturally and we want to learn and get better at it!
Wanted to talk to you about the new tote bags we are selling tomorrow! Showing you how roomy and lush they are as they have a little Gusset in them!
Please buy them! They are mint and all the money goes to supporting top gals across Greater Manchester!

For a second there, we forgot that we grew up in the 90's and that all our mates were moshers (or fashionistas) and so we are pleased to announce that our brand new black and pink hand screen printed t shirts (plus some other bits and bobs ๐Ÿ‘€) go live ๐Ÿšจ Friday at 9am ๐Ÿšจ

And the good news doesn't stop there...

From 9am on Friday till 12pm on Sunday, ALL our T Shirts will be ยฃ20, and continue to be part of our match trading funding, meaning that your purchase has double the impact for your community!

Huge shout out to our pals Flood Clothing Co & Caroline Dowsett for all their hard work on this beautiful design...and to our catwalk ready models...

๐Ÿšจ Merch Update ๐Ÿšจ
Our second design has been created by the mega ๐Ÿฅณ

When we originally spoke to Caroline, we spoke at length about our passion around not only breaking down the stigma that can be present in conversations about periods and our bodies, but also how we can challenge concepts of 'normal' and 'healthy' and how this can be different to different people and at different stages of our lives.

We think the message of "There's no right way to have a body" captures our values perfectly ๐Ÿ‘Œ and helps us to highlight the importance of championing lived experience!

Keep your eyes ๐Ÿ‘€ peeled for merch drop dates coming soon...but in the meantime, you can check out even more beautiful work from over on her Insta!

This week, The Crimson Wave team have been at Mahdlo Youth Zone, talking to Junior and Senior members about the different period ๐Ÿฉธ products available and some of the myths that exist around periods and our bodies!

There's been SO MANY incredible conversations with young people - and we can't wait to be back there again this Saturday ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ for their Women and Girls space!

As always - a big shout to 'Hey Girls' for our product donations!
