These cafes form part of the Wellbeing Framework, which aims to increase health and wellbeing opportunities for staff. More information on the Framework can be found here.   

They are intended to be a safe but informal space, so colleagues are reminded that they should not feel obliged to stay for the full duration.   

Next week’s theme is women’s health and menopause. Attendees will learn more about common ailments and the different types of cancer which are more likely to affect women, and the session will explain how to check for any new or changing lumps or bumps each month, and what to do if you find something. 

Furthermore, some time will be dedicated to discussing menopause - which until recent years was arguably considered a taboo subject - and what can be done to manage the symptoms linked to it.  

The Wellbeing Café is also an opportunity for colleagues to relax from the daily stresses of life, meet others, and seek wellbeing advice and guidance. Please note no booking is required and all are welcome to attend.
