A Jam Sponge is an alternative to a tampon.
It's a healthier way to soak up the blood and it will save you £££!
In August 2009 Jam Sponge was taken over by Rachael Hertogs who runs Moon Times Organic Pads and Panty Liners which are the soft, comfortable alternative to disposables, free from bleaches, irritants and chemicals; made from breathable organic cotton, leaving you feeling confident and fresh!
Jam Sponge was originated by Lisa Cole, a single mum who lives in Bristol, UK. On her 4th week of bleeding following treatment for dodgy cells on her cervix she started to think of alternatives to potentially carcinogenic tampons. Menstrual sponges have been around for donkeys years, are softer than cups and looked like they were worth a try. She loved them so much she decided to sell them so that other people could have as much fun. After 6 weeks of bleeding she was grumpy, tired and bored of talk of moons and goddesses so she decided to sell them in a different way and the Jam Sponge was born. She is indebted to Jasper for the Jam Sponge name and the phrase - no strings attached.
In case you are interested, Lisa was cleared of dodgy cervix cells and will never miss a smear test again.
Lisa Cole is also Moomum from the funky pro breastfeeding t-shirt company www.lactivist.co.uk and she also runs www.nakedwebsite.co.uk. She has no spare time and her house is a mess!
