  • S8 Ep13: Bookshelfie: Laura Coryton
    2025/10/07
    Feminist campaigner and founder of Sex Ed Matters, Laura Coryton discusses the power of sisterhood, the books which have inspired her campaigning and why sex education in schools still needs to evolve.

    In 2014, Laura led the petition ‘Stop Taxing Periods’ to end tampon tax, which gained over 300,000 signatures and support from major political figures including Barack Obama. The campaign successfully lobbied the government to abolish the tax in 2021, before which they established the ‘Tampon Tax Fund’, through which almost £100 million pounds was donated to female-focused charities. Laura is an Obama Foundation European Leader and stood in the 2024 parliamentary election as the Labour Party candidate in Richmond Park. Her first book Speak Up! was published in 2019 and aims to inspire the next generation of female voices. Laura regularly speaks at schools about the experience and challenges of being a female campaigner, to advise and empower girls who might want to start their own campaigns or get involved with politics.

    Laura’s book choices are:
    ** Double Act by Jacqueline Wilson
    ** The Inseparables by Simone de Beauvoir
    ** The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
    ** Bone Black by bell hooks
    ** Women and Power by Mary Beard
