Bank Workers Charity: Supporting menopause at work
- Date: 09 February 2023
- Time: 14:00 - 15:00
- Location: Online
Event details
We’re in the middle of a menopause revolution.
Affecting an estimated 13 million people in the UK, the menopause was for too long a taboo subject but in recent years it has been recognised as a key wellbeing issue. Now the topic of many high profile and national conversations, it is increasingly being seen as a workplace wellbeing priority, with many employers introducing support measures for affected employees.
Despite this progress, however, there remains a general lack of knowledge about the day-to-day impact of the menopause at work. All too often, line managers feel unequipped to support employees or feel uncomfortable engaging in conversations around the issue.
This webinar looks at how people are affected by the menopause at work, the different approaches to offering support and how to create a menopause-friendly environment within the team.
This session includes a live Q&A.
Webinar overview:
- Who does it affect and how?
- Impact of the menopause at work
- How can line managers support staff affected by the menopause?
- Examples of support in the workplace

Bank Workers Charity: Men's health
- Date: 22 July 2025
- Time: 11:00 - 12:00
- Location: Online
Every demographic has its own critical issues when it comes to healthcare. For men, two things stand out. The suicide rate is worryingly high, whilst prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the UK. The persistence of these health issues and others among men is aggravated by their reluctance to visit their GP, to seek help from a counsellor or to ask for support. This is a free webinar, open to all members.

Every demographic has its own critical issues when it comes to healthcare. For men, two things stand out. The suicide rate is worryingly high, whilst prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the UK.
The persistence of these health issues and others among men is aggravated by their reluctance to visit their GP, to seek help from a counsellor or to ask for support.
We've teamed up with the Bank Workers Charity to consider some key issues in men’s health and explore the pivotal life stages that can create greater challenges for health. We look at how we can support each other, and what support is specifically available for men.
This webinar is designed for, and open to, all genders.
Webinar overview:
- Disparities between genders in seeking healthcare
- The challenges of different life stages
- The influence of social media on men’s health
- Mental health and emotional wellbeing
- Impact of relationships on health
- Where to get support
