WISH Spring Newsletter Yorkshire and Humberside

WISH Yorkshire and Humberside Newsletter Spring 2022

After the success of our first menopause event in January we were so pleased to host a follow-up event aimed at CEOs, senior leaders, and anyone in a position to make change in the workplace for those experiencing the menopause.

It was another brilliant and engaging session where we heard from Sharon Macarthur (Miss Menopause), Liz Thompson (Head of HR Business Partnering at Thirteen Group), Lisa Winward (Chief Constable North Yorkshire Police), Vanessa Pritchard-Wilkes (Head of Strategic Engagement at Housing 21) and Jeannette Jackson (Director at Manchester Stress Institute). A huge thank you to our speakers, and to everyone who joined us. You can re-watch the event here.

We also created an Action Toolkit for attendees. This resource is for everyone, all genders, and we hope it will be a helpful part of organisations’ journeys in becoming menopause diverse employers. Please share it with colleagues and anyone who would be able to put it to good use, and do let us know if your organisations start doing anything differently.

Another huge thank you to everyone involved with these two important events.
