Most of you won’t know this about me but 23 years ago, as a newly qualified GP, I worked in Styal prison for women as their doctor. I heard so many stories from the women there that have and will stay with me forever.
It’s not uncommon for women in prisons to have no access to information about their health (especially their hormones!) which just doesn’t sit right with me.
That’s why we’ve been speaking to HM Prison Services to get complimentary copies of my book approved for women’s prisons across the country. I’ve had confirmation now that this has now been approved so hopefully it will help towards changing that lack of information🤞
A special day yesterday as the @menomandate ladies came together to launch a new @SpotifyUK playlist, that reads like a story, spelling out the symptoms and experience of #menopause .

Attacks against @drlouisenewson are attacks against every woman who is seeking support and treatment for menopause. And I take it as an attack against me personally.

Last night I lived out one of my dreams - to hold a book launch event in @Dauntbooks
Huge thanks to everyone who has supported me so far! I am blown away by the response to my book and I hope this is the start of change for women everywhere
It is worth listening to Woman's Hour today (17th March), part of the discussion focuses on menopause and employment. If you would like to understand how embracing menopause awareness can help your organisation please contact me.

@alwcymru are hosting a wellbeing event on 10th March at the Quaker Meeting House in Cardiff. I will talking about menopause in conjunction with @UniteWulf. Book your place...
Women make up nearly half of the UK workforce. But 1 in 10 women aged 45-55 left the workforce due to #menopause symptoms.
That's why I am proud @UKLabour have committed to support #menopausal women in the workplace with holistic, not one size fits all, #menopause action plans.
