About the menopause network
The University of Plymouth Menopause Network was initially launched as a support group in March 2019 for all employees and expanded to become an official staff network in October 2019.
All genders and ages are welcome to attend the meeting, whether you’re experiencing symptoms yourself and want to meet others in a similar situation or if you would like to understand more about the menopause. The chair and secretary is Briony Goldsmith with administrative support from the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Team.
Meetings are held roughly every six to eight weeks as well as social events throughout the year and topics to discuss or share are guided by the members of the network. As with all staff networks, the menopause network receives an annual budget and is independent from any department of the University with administration support provided by the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Team.
Upcoming meetings
The Menopause Network is next meeting on Thursday 7 November 2019. Please email Briony Goldsmith for the full details.
Equality, diversity and inclusion at the University of Plymouth
“An important part of our University is the value we place on being a diverse and inclusive community, where we learn and benefit from our rich variety of backgrounds and beliefs. This in part is why the University of Plymouth is such an enriching place to work and to study.”
