Today is #WorldMenopauseDay. Menopause and its symptoms can have a huge impact on women's mental health, confidence and wellbeing, especially in the workplace. If they're not supported properly, many women report having to take time off work to manage their symptoms. This can lead to loss of earnings and other worries. At Solent Mind, we're working to close the gap, delivering training in workplaces and communities to help raise awareness of mental health and menopause. We provide practical advice to employers, giving them the confidence to have open conversations and better support employees living with the menopause.
