About this event

Health • Personal health

Welcome to the Immersive Menopause Reality Session! Join us at Bewick Hall, Level 2, Newcastle City Library for an eye-opening experience.

Ellie Land presents an immersive session for women exploring experiences of the menopause. Using VR headsets this film-based project, uses women's personal stories of the menopause to educate, stimulate discussion, challenge stigma, and develop understanding.

This event is designed to provide a deeper understanding of menopause through this interactive activity and feedback session. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to learn and connect with others going through similar experiences.

Due to the intimate nature of this event and to give people time to connect we have split this event into 2 sessions.
