TotsBots + NORA: Making Waves Together this National Marine Week

Happy National Marine Week!

From the 22nd July – 6th August, National Marine Week celebrates our amazing coastlines, marine life, and the need to protect them. As parents who care about the planet, we know you're already doing your bit to beat plastic pollution by choosing reusable nappies.
 
But did you know that you can extend your eco-conscious efforts beyond your baby's nappies? 
 
This National Marine Week, we’re talking about how you can go the extra mile to banish disposable plastic waste by switching to reusable period wear. 
 
Did you know that disposable period products are the 5th most common item found on European beaches? They pop up more than single-use coffee cups, cutlery and straws*. We think that stinks!
 

Meet NORA: TotsBots’ Reusable Period Wear Brand

NORA is TotsBots’ reusable period wear brand, offering a selection of eco-friendly options from menstrual cups to period pants and pads, designed to keep you comfortable, leak-free, and most importantly, plastic-free during your periods!
 

The NORA Try Me Pack: Your Eco-Friendly Starter Kit

If you're new to reusable period wear, a Try Me Pack from NORA is the perfect way to dip your toes in. This handy pack includes 4 pads in a range of absorbencies; meaning you get to find your perfect fit. 
Why choose to reuse on your period?
 
1. Eco-Friendly
Just like TotsBots nappies, NORA's reusable period wear is the kinder choice for the environment. By washing and reusing your period wear every month, you’re not throwing away lots of single use plastic waste like used tampon applicators, pads and packaging. 
2. Cost-Effective
Imagine never having to remember to buy disposable period products again! When you buy reusables, you invest in long-lasting, durable period wear that lasts for years, meaning you can permanently remove them from your shopping list.
3. Comfort and Convenience
NORA products are designed to be super comfortable. They're easy to use (and wash!), offer leak-proof protection, and are gentle on your skin. The clever fabric technology also wicks moisture away from your skin to keep you fresh and dry at all times. 
 
Ready to take the plunge? Now’s the time to take the next step in eliminating plastic pollution by trying out reusable period wear with a NORA Try Me Pack this National Marine Week.
Let’s make a positive impact on the environment, one period at a time!
