The Menopause and Physical Activity - Community of Learning session

The menopause is a significant change in a woman’s life and can often have a negative impact on a woman’s physical activity as a result.

This webinar in May 2021 provided an opportunity for partners to hear about the latest research from Women in Sport, learn from Founder of The Merry Menopause & Menopause Educator, take on board lived experiences and discover how sport and physical activity provision can and is supporting women’s physical and mental wellbeing during the menopause.

Event outcomes:
- Raised awareness of the menopause and the benefits of physical activity
- Recommendations for partners and activity deliverers to support women to maintain and re-engage with physical activity during menopause
- More women in participating in physical activity (especially in the 40-55 age bracket)
- Awareness of the This Girl Can Sussex Network
