Story
Wellbeing of Women are a charity whose ambition is to ensure that women’s lives are not limited by their gynaecological and reproductive health. They do this by investing in world class research, championing education, raising awareness and tackling the taboos that exist in women’s health, influencing guidelines, policy and practice and empowering women to advocate for themselves.
They are taking action right across a woman’s life course including period problems, pregnancy and childbirth issues including preterm birth, gynaecological cancers, and menopause.
Women's health conditions and transitions commonly co-occur with cognitive health concerns such as brain fog, stress, burnout, memory lapses, lack of focus and mood swings. And while many workplaces are offering mental health and wellbeing support, few are currently providing any support or protection for cognitive health and function.
I am honoured to be working with WoW through their employer member network, to improve neuroinclusion, cognitive resilience and brain health at work. Their support in an underserved area of health is invaluable and I am delighted to be joining their Walk & Talk event on 7th Sept.
(It's just around the corner so fundraising time is far shorter than I would like!).
