Friday 18 October is World Menopause Day and as a University, we want to mark the event by increasing awareness and continuing to break the stigma around speaking about the menopause.

The University delivers menopause awareness training and has signed the Menopause Workplace Pledge and we ensure we are listening and responding to feedback to support our staff.

We’ll be running events to encourage conversation about the menopause and how we can support staff. Whether you’re directly impacted or just want to know how to support friends, family and colleagues, there’s something for you.

Details on how to book can be found below.

• Menopause safe listening space – Wednesday 16 October
• Bitesize learning module on menopause at work (15 minutes)
• Menopause in the workplace training for all staff – Thursday 17 October

We’re always working to improve how we support staff through this stage of life and if you have any feedback then please email wellbeing@soton.ac.uk
