Managing Menopause on a Tight Budget
The Menopause Team

Managing Menopause on a Tight Budget is a free, supportive session which includes a buffet lunch and is being held at the Phoenix Centre in the Townhill area of Swansea. The session is designed to make menopause information clear, practical, and accessible. Many face challenges navigating perimenopause and menopause with little guidance, which can affect confidence, wellbeing, relationships, and participation in everyday life. These challenges are particularly difficult for those on a low income.
This session addresses the role of poverty stigma as a barrier to accessing support. It offers evidence-based information, dispels common myths, and will share simple, affordable strategies for managing symptoms. It will also highlight the important links between menopause, mental health, and financial pressures, creating a safe space for open discussion.
Participants will:
Gain practical strategies to manage symptoms
Build confidence in understanding and talking about menopause and about poverty
Learn about local services, income-maximisation support, and wellbeing resources
Connect with others in a supportive community setting.
Whether you’re experiencing menopause yourself or supporting someone else, this event will give you the knowledge and tools to feel more in control – whatever your budget.
