Use these resources to have conversations on menopause and raise awareness this World Menopause Day.
World Menopause Day is held every year on the 18th of October.
The purpose of the day is to raise awareness of the menopause and the support options available for improving health and wellbeing for all those going through the menopause.
The ALLIANCE has been working with the Scottish Government to share information and create helpful resources on menopause to demystify and destigmatise the experience.
You can use the resources in this pack on World Menopause Day to:
• Learn more about menopause, including symptoms, treatments and adjustments
• Share with friends, family, colleagues and employers to help them understand your menopausal experience, and help you to vocalise your symptoms and what support you might need
• Host a World Menopause Day in your workplace or community, sharing or screening the resources as part of it
• Use as conversation points with a group – whether that be of friends, an employee network, a peer support group, or community group
• Share on social media to raise awareness of menopausal experiences and keep the conversation going
We are also hosting a webinar on menopause on 17th October 2024 1-2pm on Zoom. Find more information and sign up here.
If you use our resources for World Menopause Day please let us know. We’d love to hear from you and the great work in raising awareness and normalising the menopause! Email whp@alliance-scotland.org.uk
