Founder of the Love Your Period campaign (Young Changemaker)
A Young Champion for Menstrual Justice and Health Advocacy
Molly Fenton is a fearless activist leading the fight for period equity and menstrual health awareness. While living with an inoperable brain tumour and navigating the complex health challenges that come with it, she has turned her personal experience into a powerful force for change. She founded Love Your Period, a youth-led campaign tackling period stigma, education, and access, and serves as Chair of Irise’s Empower Period Committee, shaping national policy and youth-led advocacy.
Through public speaking, policy influence, and grassroots activism, Molly ensures that young people can better understand their bodies and can advocate for their health—especially in a system that too often ignores or dismisses their concerns. Her work has earned her national recognition, including a BCAh award, and she now advises the Welsh Government on period equity. Despite the challenges of her own health, Molly’s determination and leadership continue to inspire young people across the UK and beyond.
