The menopause is a natural process and for many can be positively managed through lifestyle adjustments and/or medical support. While some may not encounter any symptoms, supporting those with symptoms may enhance their experience at work and sense of positivity. The menopause should not be a taboo or ‘hidden’ subject and these Guidelines seek to give managers, staff and students the necessary signposting to unearth the subject and elevate supports. In 2024, 91ÖÆƬ³§ launched the 91ÖÆƬ³§ Menopause Guidelines for Staff and Students that sets out the steps for providing the right support to manage menopausal symptoms at work and study.

In May 2024, the Menopause Champions Network and Café were launched to offer 91ÖÆƬ³§ staff and student trained personnel as a contact to those experiencing symptoms of the menopause who would like support. 

If you would like support or a listening ear, please contact one of the following champions that include:

• Nicola Brennan
• Edel Foster
• Dr Suzanne Egan
• Kathleen Maher
• Prof. Lorraine McIlrath
• Elaine Murnane
• Dr Hannagh McGinley
• Mary O’Brien
• Fiona O’Dwyer
• Ciara Ní Shúilleabháin
