Menopause Cafe
The Menopause Cafe in Hoylake is a welcoming and supportive space for women to come together and discuss the challenges and experiences of menopause.
Hosted at Chemist & Co, the cafe provides a safe and comfortable environment for women to share their stories, ask questions, and receive support from others who are going through similar experiences. Whether you're looking for information, advice, or simply a friendly ear, the Menopause Cafe is here to help.

Chemist & Co’s Pledge
To facilitate a Menopause Cafe as:
-
A discussion group. We don’t set agendas – discussion topics emerge and are shaped by participants.
-
It is open to everyone. Menopause impacts everyone, and all are welcome at a Café, including all ages and genders.
-
Impartial to the way ahead. Everyone’s menopause is unique, so our cafes are supportive spaces to help people learn, make sense of their journey, and consider options. They never promote a particular product or course of action.
-
Not for profit. Cafes are not about selling things, they are about participants supporting each other. We don’t charge people to come and have a chat.
-
Accessible, respectful and confidential space. All journeys and related choices are different –we listen to each other with curiosity, aiming to understand not necessarily to agree.
-
A place that is approachable - please talk to us if you have any issues about the sessions.
We will:
-
Refuse to admit anyone who comes to the Cafe intoxicated
We reserve the right to:
-
Refuse entry to anyone without a ticket
-
Disinvite any participants who use the Cafe as a sales or marketing exercise.
