The event was kindly hosted by Pan Pacific and was attend by the representatives of over 30 companies.
While the UK has seen an extraordinary uptick in media coverage and discussions around menopause in recent months, companies, individuals and other organisations are still challenged to understand in practice what the growing body of information and openness around menopause means for them.
We were honoured to welcome Janet Lindsay, CEO of Wellbeing of Women, Sharon Vibert, Director, Henpicked, Sam Simister, Co-founder, Gen M, Pamela Hutchinson OBE, Global Head of D&I, Bloomberg, Emma Campbell, Speaker, Author and Columnist, and Lee Chambers, Essentialise Workplace Wellbeing, as well as guests from the Financial Skills Council, Midlife Switch (The Natural Menopause approach), and Over the Bloody Moon.
“What a fantastic event, thank you so much WeAreTheCity for bringing together these incredible organisations to share what they are doing to help women in the Menopause. The lived experiences shared by Pamela and Emma were truly inspirational. Thanks once again”
– Caroline Graham, Barclays
