Menopause Support

The menopause has long been stigmatised, leading to shame and embarrassment leaving many to suffer in silence. Fortunately, there is now a shift towards a "change" for good, notably instigated with the recent Davina McCall documentaries on Channel 4 highlighting the problems that women face and bringing the menopause fully into the public domain.

Support Group

We have established a AU peri-/post-/menopause support group for all staff and students; this will serve as an opportunity to share experiences and provide a safe supportive environment.

Upcoming meetings:

Wednesday 26th June
Wednesday 24th July
Wednesday 21st August
Wednesday 18th September
Wednesday 23rd October
Wednesday 20th November
Wednesday 18th December

All in Cledwyn 0.25 3-4 pm and on MS Teams - links will be posted on the AU Menopause Support Group Discussion Forum
