“The idea behind Doek and Slay is to support women by encouraging them to love each other ,mend each others crowns as well as occasionally setting out a day to unwind and have fun.We seek to foster a culture that values ladies as Empowerment ,personal development and self care are our main objections .
“We are creating an open environment where women relax ,socialize and put themselves first for once considering they work hard to keep the home in perfect shape ,so they also need some time off.We also came up with a hashtags PeriodicCare and Dignified Periods where every event has a pad bin at the entrance .This bin is there so that ladies donate sanitary wear which we then give to those who don’t have access to these basic needs .
“I don’t think we will stop anytime soon because the support women show is exhilarating ,rendering it feasible to continue ,”she said .
The picnic will feature performances by Feli Nandi and Enzo Ishall, live jazz and djs will be on rotation .
