Title: Parliamentary debate on menopause
Post by: Robin on February 16, 2019, 12:33:01 PM: I've just watched this debate via a link on Dr Anne Hendersons twitter feed. The culmination of lots of hard work from Dr Louise Newson, Diane Danzbrink, Jane Lewis and others. It's excellent and well worth watching. Fingers crossed things begin to change!

Well done and thank you to everybody involved in getting things this far :thankyou:
