#perimenopause #menopause: purpose over popularity.
Menopause isn’t a trend, it’s a truth.
It’s not about being liked, it’s about being heard.
Purpose over popularity.
Let’s shift the narrative from silence to strength.

Ulster University researchers want to understand women's experience of menopause while also exploring the additional challenges for women with diabetes. If you're a woman aged 35-65, live in the UK, and are going through or have completed menopause, please scan the QR code to a survey to help develop a better understanding of the experiences of women from every racial & cultural background, with and without diabetes 3 x £100 LoveShop vouchers will be given to randomly selected respondents who complete the online questionnaire and provide their contact details.
