A relaxed day of activities to reflect on midlife and menopause.

On Tuesday 1 April, we will be hosting Coming Home, a relaxed day of conversation, art and activities to reflect on midlife and menopause.

This warmly hosted event is for anyone experiencing menopause, not sure if they are, or those who have reached the other side!

There's no need to book, just turn up on the day. You can take part in activities or just wander round and see what’s going on.
