Menopause can have an effect on us all, whether someone is experiencing menopause directly or supporting a family member, friend or colleague.
While some will sail through menopause, 3 in 4 experience symptoms and as many as 1 in 4 have serious symptoms. However, around half have never consulted a healthcare professional about their menopause.
Research also shows that the majority of those experiencing menopause are unwilling to discuss menopause-related health problems with their managers or ask for any support they may need.
We’re passionate about the wellbeing of our colleagues and that means helping everyone to talk about menopause openly, so please join this webinar ‘Let’s talk about menopause’.
In this educational and engaging session, we’ll help you understand:
- What menopause is, how to recognise the symptoms and how someone may be affected by menopause
- The options available to manage symptoms and long-term health
- What support is available and how to access it, both at work and outside work
- Specific support available through Community TU
- The role of trade union representatives and other supporters in helping someone prepare for conversations around menopause
