Menopause activists spent a whole day putting renewed pressure on the Government to prioritise women’s health. The group Menopause Mandate only formed less than two months ago and some 400 people have already reached out to campaigners with their stories.
The campaigning day ended with Sir Lindsay Hoyle signing a pledge to make the Commons ‘menopause friendly’
The group Menopause Mandate only formed less than two months ago and some 400 people have already reached out to the campaigners with their stories. On Monday, the group told MPs: ‘Until every single perimenopausal woman has access to a trained expert and HRT is available and affordable for all, then we at Menopause Mandate haven’t achieved our goals.’
Many people feel menopause is part of a string of women’s health issues not given enough attention or validation.
