MOVE / Education edition concept

Better information changes the conversation.

The 83% Edition is a proposed awareness collection, not a claim about how many people have period symptoms.

The number belongs to a question.

In the August 2023 Wellbeing of Women / Censuswide survey of 3,002 UK women and girls aged 16–40, 83% agreed there should be better education on periods in school, college or university. It does not measure symptom prevalence.

Keep the research off the garment.

A restrained 83% and short education message are the art direction. Full source, date, sample and limitations belong on the product page and approved swing tag. Print artwork and production specifications are not yet approved.
