Menopause: resources and support

Whether you’re looking for information about the menopause, you’d benefit from some support or you wish to help someone else, we have you covered.

Access support

Understanding the menopause

Approaching or going through the menopause can bring with it a lot of uncertainty and can have physical, psychological and social impacts on your life.

Here, we'll share a range of resources - from articles to webinars, podcasts, information on programmes and online courses - to help you through your own journey.

Wellbeing Workshop

We work directly with fire and rescue services to deliver an ‘Understanding Menopause’ wellbeing workshop and informal cafes that explore the physical, psychological and social impact of the menopause on both body and mind, as well as providing self-help strategies and information on support available.

This session is also useful for those supporting someone going through the menopause, either professionally or personally.

Meet Sonia

Sonia Cox, a Group Manager with West Midlands FRS, has shared some of the ways she found the menopause impacted her wellbeing. Now she wants to encourage both women and men to talk more about it, so it isn’t such a taboo subject at work.

She says: "Talking about it, understanding that there’s some reasonable adjustments that we can put in place, there’s support that we can give to ensure that people do stay at work and don’t lose that sense of value, is vital.”
