Creative Menopause - Create and Debate

The Creative Menopause series is part of the Whitworth's Age Friendly Programme and explores the impact of creativity on the menopause journey. We have been running regular monthly workshops since 2021 (starting on zoom) and ran Creative Menopuase event for World Menopause Day in 2022 and 2023.

This event is in response to feedback that asked for events after work and more expert information from professionals in the field. We listened and have put together this event to take place 5-7pm . starting at 5pm we will get creative by making Paddle fans to keep those hot flushes at bay and follow with an interactive, informative debate with the experts.

see below for more information on the panel.

Refreshments will be provided.
