A day worth celebrating
World Menopause Day falls on 18 October each year. It's a global moment to break the silence around a life stage that every woman will experience, yet too few feel able to talk about openly.
On Saturday 17 October, we marked it together. And what a day it was.
From the moment the doors opened, the room was buzzing. There was laughter, honesty, a few tears and an unmistakable sense that everyone was exactly where they needed to be.
To every one of you who helped create that energy: thank you. Your turnout and your enthusiasm went beyond anything we'd hoped for.
To everyone who showed up
You gave up your Saturday to be with us, and you made it count.
You didn't just attend. You took part. You:
- Shared your stories, often with courage and good humour, so others felt less alone
- Asked the questions many women have wondered about for years but never voiced
- Listened and lifted each other up, turning a room of strangers into a community
- Left with new friends, fresh knowledge and, we hope, a little more confidence about the road ahead
Menopause can feel isolating. On the day, it felt anything but. That was your doing and we are so grateful.
With heartfelt thanks to our sponsors
