At the menopause café the community can discuss menopausal symptoms, tips and worries in a confidential and inspiring environment. Everyone is welcome to come and have a chat, grab a drink and talk about the menopause. A great opportunity to discuss how you are feeling, your symptoms, ask questions and get support from others.

Donna Williamson Senior Manager at Everybody Health and Leisure commented,

“We are delighted to be working in partnership with Motherwell Cheshire CIO to provide these cafes. An accessible, respectful and confidential space, open for all, regardless of gender or age, with no intention of leading people to any conclusion, product or course of action. We look forward to welcoming the community at these sessions.”

Kate Blakemore from Motherwell Cheshire CIO commented,

“Our aim is to facilitate as many people as possible, talking about the Menopause.  There’s a lot of people who don’t realise why they feel the way they feel. It’s trying to make women aware and help them provide a support network.

I would like to thank Everybody Health and Leisure who are helping to bring these relaxed Menopause Cafés to the heart of our local communities and to our local GPs in Cheshire, who are showing their support in helping us shape the groups. We encourage everyone to come along and join the conversation.”

The Menopause Café at Macclesfield Leisure Centre takes place on the first and third Wednesday of each month, 7.00pm – 8.30pm.
