CBC Menopause Cafe

Thu 30 June 2022

Cancer Research UK, Cambridge Institute

After the successful launch of the CBC Menopause Cafe in May we are going to make them a regular occurence and so we invite you to join us again at the CBC Menopause Café this time on Thursday, 30th June at 3pm in the café at CRUK CI on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus.
Free tea, coffee and cake will be provided - so we need you to register so we ensure we have enough! The group is not cliquey and is very welcoming so do please venture along either alone or with friends/colleagues. And do please spread the word!

Did you know that menopausal women are the fastest-growing population at work? Or that around 8 out of 10 menopausal women are in work?
Whilst some women sail through menopause, 3 out of 4 experience symptoms and as many as 1 in 4 have serious symptoms. However, around half have never consulted a healthcare professional about their menopause. Research also shows that the majority of women are unwilling to discuss menopause-related health problems with their line managers, or ask for any support they may need.
That’s why we’re encouraging people to pop along to listen to others and allow those who wish to share their experience with the menopause in an informal, confidential setting. You could be experiencing menopause yourself, be a brother, daughter, husband supporting a family member, a colleague who wants to know how they can be supportive in the workplace… The menopause café is open for all, regardless of gender, experience or age. There will not be a set agenda and there is no intention of leading people to any conclusion, product or course of action.
Let’s get the conversation going….
