Menopause Inclusion Collective call on UN Women.

We used the opportunity to reflect on progress made within Scotland, Wales, and England; not least the 2019 debate in Scottish Parliament led by Christina McKelvie , the MakeMenopauseMatter campaign by Diane Danzebrink and team of stalwart menopause activists and countless others have been involved in campaigning for change and advancing acknowledgment of the menopause movements, including WEN Wales, Wales TUC, Rachel Mclean MP
