BVN has launched the Mind the Gap wellbeing initiative, a new series of lunchtime events aimed to support professionals and enrich workplace culture. The first two events focus on Menopause in the Workplace in association with the Australasian Menopause Society.
Part one was held on 13 June, with Dr Liz Rayment presenting on Menopause Awareness. The video for this session will be available shortly.
On 27 June, Dr Amie Hanlon will present on Midlife Health and Work.
The Mind the Gap series aims to shape positive change for the industry. Events are open to all to follow online – either by attending via Teams or viewing the video recordings.
Midlife health and work
On Thursday 27 June Dr Amie Hanlon will present on menopause and midlife heath at work, outlining self-management coping strategies and preventative interventions for healthy ageing. The discussion will also cover managerial skills and workplace adjustments to support those experiencing menopause.
Speaker
