About a third of the UK female population are peri or menopausal, however it still remains difficult to talk about and there is still too little awareness about what it is and how it’s experienced.
It usually occurs in mid-life, between ages 45-55, although the menopause is possible at any age. Most will get menopausal symptoms, but may not recognise them as such, or know who to talk to about it.
This webinar from the Bank Workers Charity looks at both the perimenopause (the transition into menopause) and the menopause, examines the current conversation about menopause and what we’re not talking about, and provides guidance on where to get specialised support.
It also looks at the huge impact of menopause in the workplace, and how some employers have become menopause-friendly.
This webinar is designed for, and open to, all genders.
