Menopause & Me

Our Menopause & Me project provides support, guidance and resources to people in Suffolk experiencing the menopause and perimenopause. Find out how we can help you manage menopause symptoms and get the right support at work.

Menopause & Me is an exciting and important project delivered by Suffolk Libraries in partnership with Suffolk Mind and funded by the Department for Health & Social Care.

The menopause and perimenopause affects everyone – at home and at work. It not only affects menopausal people, but their colleagues, families and friends too. Menopause & Me aims to increase awareness and understanding of the impact of the menopause, and make sure everyone in Suffolk feels supported.
