Meet the eight-year-old boy helping fight period poverty - by making reusable pads for an international charity.

Elliott Lonigro first heard about The Pachamama Project through his mother, Alanna Lonigro, 47, who was already volunteering.

The charity, which aims to help combat period poverty by sending reusable pads to those in need, was founded by Ella Lambert, 24, in August 2020.

The organisation provides support across 10 countries, including Lebanon, Malaysia, Uganda and refugees in the UK.
