Tackle
Anything
No girl should have to choose between her period and the sport she loves. It’s time to change the game.
Periods are one of the biggest reasons girls quit sport.
Once they stop, most never come back. The numbers are blunt. So is our response.
girls drop out of sport after primary school
of girls avoid being active on their period
of girls who drop out leave sport altogether
who stay don’t meet minimum fitness standards
leave primary school unable to swim, a vital life skill
feel there just aren’t enough chances to take part
Tackle Anything is our promise to make sure no girl is sidelined by her period. We equip grassroots clubs with period wear and menstrual-health resources, so every player can show up and stay in the game.
Partner clubs’ players receive WUKA period wear — pants and patches — gifted, not sold.
Menstrual-health sessions for young athletes, led by Olympic swimmer Hannah Miley MBE.
Football, rugby, roller hockey, netball and taekwondo, with more to come.
It’s working. The girls told us themselves.
In our first players’ survey — 376 girls across 44 partner clubs — the shift was unmistakable.
Average confidence climbed from 3.1 to 4.3 out of 5 — and only 4% of girls scored themselves lower.

Royal Yachting Association
A groundbreaking partnership with the RYA, across England, Scotland and Northern Ireland, to back women and girls in sailing. Together we’re breaking down the barriers so periods never limit confidence, participation or performance on the water.
From the changing room to the start line
Welsh Rugby Union
A proud partner of the WRU Women’s Team since 2022. We’ve seen first-hand the difference WUKA period wear makes to confidence and performance in training and on match day. Backing the team at a national level means the world to us.
Black Swimming Association
We support the BSA in diversifying aquatics through education, advocacy and research, tackling the barriers that keep African, Caribbean and Asian communities out of the water. Inclusive, barrier-free sport is exactly what we’re here for.
Scottish Gymnastics
The first partnership of its kind in Scotland, taking on long-standing taboos around menstrual health for 30,000 members, 84% of them female. From elite gymnasts to coaches, judges and volunteers.
Hatfield Swim Club
When Hatfield reached out, supporting them was a no-brainer. Just a stone’s throw from WUKA HQ, they’re one of the few SwimMark-accredited high-performance clubs, producing national, international and Olympic medallists.
Inspire Girls FA
Thrilled to back the Inspire Girls Football Academy and their mission to empower young female footballers. Together we’re developing the next generation of leaders, on and off the pitch.
Swindon Town FC
Our first National League partnership, backing Swindon Town Women’s First and Development Teams. The WUKA logo features on the team’s shorts all season, so no player worries about leaks on match day, even in white.
