Join Us For A Fabulous Festival Day Out? Menopause Matters is very excited to be the headline women’s health partner at the launch of Dumfries & Galloway's first large scale wellbeing festival, Vivacity on 17th October 2026.
The one-day festival will transform the historic Crichton Estate into a vibrant destination celebrating physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. Our own Dr Heather Currie MBE, founder of Menopause Matters, said: “For too long menopause was something women were expected to manage quietly, on their own. Bringing Menopause Matters into Vivacity means we can talk openly about nutrition, mental health and lifestyle, not just prescriptions, and reach women right across Dumfries and Galloway and beyond who need to hear it.” » Read more

Share your Menopause Shift Work Experiences
A student researcher at the University of Liverpool is recruiting participants to take part in a study exploring menopause and shift work. They are looking to recruit women who would be willing to share their experiences.
The target group is anyone going through the perimenopause/menopause or having menopausal symptoms (no formal diagnosis required) and who are working in shift-based employment (rotating days, nights, earlys, lates etc, anything other than a typical mon-fri 9-5).
You will be asked to write about their experiences in the form of a written narrative (much like a diary entry) or as a voice note. You also have the option to take part in an interview if this is not appropriate for you.
