The menopause affects everyone, whether directly or indirectly, but it's still stigmatised and there's very little awareness about what it is, and how it’s experienced.
We've teamed up with the Bank Workers Charity for a joint webinar that looks at both the perimenopause (the transition into menopause) and the menopause. We'll examine the silence that often surrounds the subject, and provide guidance on where to get specialised support. It also looks at the astonishing impact of the menopause at work, and how some employers are becoming menopause-friendly.

Join Alliance for Finance for a discussion looking at the challenges and barriers that exist for neurodiverse people, how workplaces can overcome them and the kind of support that employers and employee reps can provide. This event is open to all members.
Neurodiversity describes the natural way that people think, learn, perceive the world, interact, and process information differently.
Although a neurodiverse workforce has many benefits for organisations, neurodiverse employees often face many barriers and challenges at work. This seminar will look at what some of these challenges and barriers may be, how workplaces can overcome them and the kind of support that employers and employee reps can provide.
They have four speakers confirmed for the event and we’ll share their details with you shortly.

Start a conversation about fertility or pregnancy loss, and you’ll realise just how many people have their own experiences to share. In this webinar from the Bank Workers Charity they talk openly to understand the varied paths to having a child, the effects of fertility treatment on wellbeing, and provide some examples of support in the workplace. They also address the different types of pregnancy loss, how it impacts all genders, and how to support someone you know who has experienced loss.This is a free webinar and designed for, and is open to, all genders.
Approximately 1 in 6 couples are affected by infertility and 1 in 4 pregnancies end in loss during pregnancy or birth.
You only have to start talking about these subjects to realise that many people around you have their own experiences to share. But somehow, these issues still carry a lot of shame, and they remain difficult to talk about.
