💗 World Menopause Day 💗

Menopause is a natural stage of life, but that doesn't mean you simply have to put up with symptoms that are affecting your everyday life.

From hot flushes and sleep problems to changes in mood, concentration and physical health, everyone's experience can be different.

If menopausal symptoms are affecting you, please speak to us. We're here to listen, discuss your options and help you find the right support. 💗

💙💗 Baby Loss Awareness Week – 9th–15th October 💗💙

This week we join families across the UK in remembering babies who were sadly lost during pregnancy, at birth or in infancy.

We know that baby loss can have a lifelong impact on parents and families, and this week is an opportunity to remember, raise awareness and remind anyone affected that support is available.

On 15th October at 7pm, families around the world will take part in the Wave of Light, lighting a candle in memory of babies gone too soon. 🕯️
