UK’s first menopause education and support network announced in Parliament

Last year, experts at UCL teamed up with leading women’s health charities to design a new education and support programme for women across the country experiencing menopause.

Since then, the team have been listening to the public through a survey, focus groups and workshop, to co-design the programme.

The programme will be called ‘In Tune’. It will allow people to be in tune with menopause, in tune with their bodies, and in tune with each other.

Two other programmes are also in development. The main programme will be aimed at people experiencing perimenopause (when symptoms have started) and menopause (when periods have stopped) and will be modelled on antenatal classes, combining education and peer support, and will be rigorously evaluated using complex intervention frameworks.
