the pause project: support from perimenopause to post-menopause

If you are based in Oxford, and struggling with your peri/menopause symptoms,

the pause project is for you!

We welcome anyone who needs support navigating perimenopause, improving their wellbeing post-menopause, or wants to support a friend or family member...

Whether you’re battling brain fog, wondering why your joints hurt all of a sudden, are struggling with sleep, maybe concerned about mood swings and anxiety, or just want to find out what to expect when you hit the perimenopause, the pause project offers you a welcoming place to find out more.

Come and join us for a cuppa and a chat - leave feeling heard, supported, more informed, and maybe even with a new friend or two! 

the pause project is an inclusive, warm, and positive space and is completely free to attend. No need to book - drop in for an informal chat, get help with symptoms, support with how to approach your GP appointment, or just let off some steam and have a vent and a biscuit (or two)…

We are firmly evidence-based, and will never try to ‘sell’ you products or services. We are not, however, medically-trained professionals, we cannot offer you medical advice, but we can signpost you to a range of trusted sources of information and support. 

If you have questions, or want to find out more before you travel to a session, please do email emma@managingthemenopause.com - and please share this info with your work colleagues/to virtual noticeboards, or with family and friends to help us raise awareness.
