Period equality
phs is leading the way when it comes to tackling period equity. We’re lifting the lid on the scale of the issue, supporting charitable causes and engaging with government, local authorities, schools and businesses.
As part of our phs Period equity initiative, we’ve commissioned new research into the experiences and opinions of girls surrounding period poverty and have launched an awareness-raising campaign.
We are also working closely with the Department for Education to create a Period Poverty Taskforce, which will bring together campaigners, organisations, experts, governments and local authorities, with one common goal: eliminating period poverty. By collaborating with these experts, we aim to highlight the scale of the issue, demonstrate best practice, identify solutions, and create a period equity movement tasked with making a real difference.

If you think we look familiar, you'd be surprised by what phs Group do
ValuesOur core values form the foundation of our culture, brand and the way we work at PHS.
Therefore when defining our values, we thought it was important to reflect the thoughts and experiences of our people. For this reason, we involved everyone in the process which meant it was our employees who chose our six values.
This process has worked well and generated a wealth of examples of best practice and new ideas about how we can continue to improve and grow.
Everyday we work to reflect these values in everything we do, for example, ‘PHS Stars’ is our employee recognition program where we ask our people to nominate colleagues who have gone above and beyond, to be recognised and rewarded.
