If you are looking for menopause support near you, a safe space to talk, or a way to better understand menopause through shared experiences, Menopause Café offers a unique, community-led approach.
Menopause Café is a global movement and registered charity that creates informal, welcoming spaces where people can come together to talk openly about menopause.
What Is a Menopause Café?
A Menopause Café is a group discussion, not a class or consultation, where participants gather—often over tea and cake—to talk about menopause in a relaxed environment.
Each café is:
- Open to everyone, regardless of age or gender
- Held in a respectful, confidential, and inclusive space
- Free from agendas, advice-giving, or promotion
- Focused on conversation, connection, and shared understanding
- Run on a not-for-profit basis
A Different Kind of Menopause Support
Unlike coaching, medical services, or structured workshops, Menopause Café is designed to:
- Break down stigma around menopause
- Encourage open, honest conversations
- Help people feel less alone
- Share experiences and perspectives
- Increase awareness for individuals, families, and workplaces
There is no set agenda — conversations are shaped by the people in the room.
Who It’s For
Menopause Café is for:
- Women experiencing perimenopause or menopause
- Partners, family members, and friends
- Colleagues and employers
- Anyone wanting to better understand menopause
The ethos is simple: menopause affects everyone, so everyone is welcome.
