Menopause group

If you need support with the menopause, why not join our Menopause group

This is an open-access 4-week group for women going through this very often challenging time in their lives. The group will focus on helping you understand what’s going on with your body and emotions, offer some guidance about the steps you can take to feel ‘normal’ again, and provide an opportunity to share thoughts, feelings and ideas with others.

This group is open to all women (not just existing LAWC clients).

We will have new groups starting soon so please check back on this page regularly for further updates.

Places are limited and must be booked in advance.

To enquire and register your interest call on 01582 416783 or email [email protected]
