Thriving through Menopause

Whether you’re experiencing menopausal symptoms yourself or looking to support someone who is, these pages are here to provide guidance and resources to help.

Your mind and body will go through some significant changes before, during and after the menopause. For many, these changes can have a detrimental impact on daily life which can be extremely challenging and stressful. 

Everyone experiences symptoms differently so it vital that everyone has access to information to find the right support for them. 

If you are experiencing symptoms, it can be hard to navigate your way around and know where to go for help but please do reach out. You are not alone.
