About this Event
WHY?
Because of: feedback, experience and shared lived experience of the Trust Leeds Self-Reliant Group members; we've designed a SRG Day Camp specifically for women who are struggling with Menopause.
The day is for women
- who want to learn more about menopause in a safe and welcoming environment.
- who want to connect with other women and support each other.
- who are up for experiencing being part of a Self-Reliant Group for a day and then have the option to continue their journey as a Self-Reliant Group with others from the day.
The event is free to attend.
The day is led by Liza Kellett (Trust Leeds), Sharon (Mental Health Group Lead.
Burmantofts, Harehills & Richmond Hill PCN NHS) and Nicola Sterling (Trust Leeds).
WHAT WILL WE DO ON THE MENOPAUSE SELF-RELIANT GROUP DAY CAMP?
The day is about members sharing tips and supporting each other, learning more about Menopause and about tools you can use to ease symptoms. There will be a variety of workshops throughout the day ranging from aromatherapy to diet to mindfulness held in peer support style. If there's interest, we will celebrate you setting up your own Self-Reliant Group and continue meeting with other attendees.
A Self-Reliant Group (or SRG for short) is a peer-group: people who live in the same neighbourhood, have things in common, or who already meet at another club or support group.
Between four and twelve people in a group all commit together to:
- meet weekly
- save together (for example 20p or £1 per member per week)
- share their ideas, ambitions and skills
- make collective decisions and rotate roles
