Timeline
Laura Coryton is a British campaigner, feminist activist and author.
She is the founder of Stop Taxing Periods, a campaign to abolish the Tampon Tax in the United Kingdom and make menstrual products exempt from VAT, and runs the Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) social enterprise Sex Ed Matters.
She was born on 28 May 1993 in Devon.
Coryton started the Stop Taxing Periods campaign in May 2014 while a student at Goldsmiths.
The campaign was centred around an online petition on campaign hosting website Change.org.
Coryton graduated from Goldsmiths, University of London in 2015 and worked for the Labour Party before completing her MSt in Women's Studies at the University of Oxford, for which she gained a distinction.
She is also an ambassador for The Eve Appeal, a British charity that raises awareness of and funds research into gynaecological cancers, and founded the Homeless Period Project, a campaign to support homeless women's access to menstrual products.
In 2015 the campaign gained the support of the then Prime Minister David Cameron, who said "I wish we could get rid of this… [but] there's a problem with getting rid of VAT on certain individual issues because of the way this tax is regulated and set in Europe."
Change.org's UK director Brie Rogers cited Coryton as a successful example of clicktivism and the influence of online political activism on national politics.
Coryton was named one of The Observer's and Nesta's 2016 New Radicals.
In December 2016, the BBC included her in their list of Five women who aren’t on Wikipedia but should be.
By early 2016 the petition had gained more than 320,000 signatures and global recognition.
Stop Taxing Periods also used protests, demonstration and viral social media.
In March 2016 Parliament accepted a Tampon Tax amendment proposed by Paula Sherriff MP, the then Chancellor George Osborne pledged in his budget to make menstrual products exempt from sales tax.
VAT on sanitary products was abolished on 1 January 2021 in the UK.
Coryton's first book 'Speak Up!', a campaign guide for rebel girls, was published by Harper Collins UK in 2019, the USA in 2022 and has been translated into French.
She was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2024 New Year Honours for services to Charitable Campaigning.
Coryton co-founded 'Sex Ed Matters', a Relationship and Sex Education social enterprise, in 2019.
The organisation, which she runs with her twin sister Julia, is designed to help schools deliver the political aspects of the new RSE curriculum, including period education, consent and LGBT rights, through the means of workshops and resources.
For her social enterprise, Laura won Innovate UK's £12,000 Young Innovator Award in 2023 and its £50,000 Unlocking Potential Award in 2024.
She has also spoken about the importance of sex education in tackling incel culture and empowering young people at many high profile events, including London Labour's Equalities Conference, Harvard University and Women of the World Festival London.
