LLR Menopause Hub
Menopause Awareness Sessions
The purpose of these sessions is to raise awareness about menopause within your organisation and across the LLR system. Everyone’s experience of menopause is different. We experience different symptoms, have different views or philosophies around how we’d manage them and different medical histories. Different cultures may ‘understand’ the menopause in different ways too. Regardless if you are going through the menopause or are there supporting others, you will gain the knowledge and understanding around menopause and where to find support and help.
Delivered by a trained menopause advocate and in partnership with Henpicked, there are sessions available for colleagues and line managers.
