‘We are the generation for change’
It’s women coming together to support each other as we acknowledge our mothers went through this unsupported, but we are the generation for change.
Thank you for raising awareness! Every speaker was excellent. I felt great afterwards, ready to put all we learned into practice.
I had an amazing day meeting all us menopause ladies on same journey.
Menopause Success Summit is brought to you with support from
‘Knowing I’m not alone has been a tremendous help’
The day before I was having a really low day mood-wise and starting to question my meaning, etc… so going to MSS was timely. It helped calm my mind to focus on the positive.
I went for a walk with my pal the next morning and we shouted MENOPAUSE at a field full of cows… we laughed and laughed. But we’re women all together in this. After MSS, I want to spread the word and talk more. That’s how we become informed.
I decided to go because I’ve met a lack of professional information about perimenopause from my GP. Thinking you are quietly going mad on your own is horrendous, but knowing I’m not alone has been a tremendous help.
