Let’s be honest. Menopause is having a moment.

And whilst that’s a positive thing, it also means there are a lot of people suddenly talking about menopause.

At Shropshire Menopause Hub, we’ve always been clear about what we’re looking for.

We value lived experience.

We value professional expertise.

We value women who have dedicated years to supporting other women through midlife.

Because our community deserves more than surface-level conversations.

They deserve specialists who understand the realities of this stage of life, both personally and professionally.

Here’s just a taste of who we’ve been lucky to host at our events:

🧡 Linda van Doorn: Pelvic Health
🧡 Diane Porterfield-Bourne: HRT
🧡 Beth Mottershead: Acupuncture
🧡 Jules McGill: Strength & movement
🧡 Cat Merrick: Stress management
🧡 Kelly Avery: Self-care, grounding & skin routines

And we’re just getting started!

Coming up next:
Nutrition & massage!!! Plus many more in the pipeline.

If you missed the Instagram live with Sarah and Cat last night, here's the recording.

This was a really open and honest conversation about the real impact perimenopause and menopause can have on confidence, health and how we show up in life. And why we have the opportunity to face things a little differently.

Cat has a wealth of knowledge and skills around helping women reconnect with themselves and rediscover moments of joy, even when the world feels crazy and unfamiliar. She also specialises in stress management, breath work and movement.

Cat is our next guest expert at Shropshire Menopause Hub on Tuesday 9th June, 7-9pm at the Darwin Community Centre. She is going to help us all understand the impact stress can have on us, why this feels different, and she'll share how you can use simple techniques to help you move through and beyond that stress, rather than carrying it around with you all the time.

Drop us the word 'EVENT' in the comments if you'd like to join us, everyone is most welcome, members or just rock up as a guest. You can also come along and pay on the night if you prefer.
