It’s been a busy couple of months for our Julie, Wellbeing Coach and Menopause Advocate! Read on to hear how she's been spreading the word about women’s health & menopause:
"I was invited along to The Lord Mayor's Parlour on the 3rd of March alongside other professional women in Sheffield that work with women around health & wellbeing. It was inspiring to hear stories of resilience and how women are supporting each other in the fields of health & wellbeing and talking more about the menopause.

Informing people about the Menopause is my passion! If we can help younger women be informed, then when it is their time to go through this they won’t need to struggle like my generation and generations before have done. This used to be a taboo subject but by talking about this to everyone - including men - then it becomes a normal topic. Women should not struggle alone, we need to help each other! This is why I set up a Menopause Café at SOAR: to give a safe space for women to join together and find out more.
"Amazing, thank goodness things are beginning to change re: information on the menopause."
I have been out & about delivering Menopause awareness sessions, and I am happy to report that men have also attended and reported they have found the information enlightening, and it has helped them to support partners/wives/daughters.
Attending the SWFC Community Health Event in February gave me the opportunity to talk to women of all ages - speaking to mums & daughters together was wonderful.
"Fabulous session – very informative. Lots I didn’t know about, thank you."
Menopause Cafés are spreading and growing across Sheffield, I am hoping there will be one in every area soon for women to receive support.
Look out for an upcoming date for a Menopause Café at the Sheffield Town Hall with our Lord Mayor, Jayne Dunn. We are joining together with other organisations to deliver one big friendly Menopause café! Date to be released soon...
Coming soon! Menopause & Weight Loss 12-week programme with SWFC Community Programme! Starting Thursday 17th April, I will be delivering a free Menopause & Weight Loss 12-week programme for women in Foxhill, Grenoside, Ecclesfield, Chapeltown, High Green, Parson Cross, Shiregreen, and Burngreave GP Surgeries.
Each week we will be coming together in the gym to take part in 30 minutes of strength training - if you’ve never done strength training before, don’t worry! We are there to guide you every step of the way.
We will then grab a cuppa & chat together on a different subject each week, such as sleep, nutrition, exercise, strength training, HRT, alternative therapies, symptoms, relationships and much more.
Meet other women on their Menopause journey, and support each other. If you would like to join us or want to find out more please get in touch.
"Informative & friendly, I will be back, thank you Julie!"
