The Sharing Group Experience: PMDD, Fibroids, PCOS, endometriosis & Mind

About the Event

Menstrual health affects most women, yet far too many face these challenges in silence. Conditions such as Fibroids, Endometriosis, PCOS, and PMDD can have life-altering impacts on both physical and mental health — but open conversation and community support remain rare.

The Sharing Group Experience is here to change that.

Join us for an empowering and judgement-free afternoon of awareness, advocacy, and shared experience — a space created by women, for women, to speak freely about menstrual and mental health.

Date: 12th December

• Time: 11:00am - 2:30pm

• Where: RDCS Royal Docks Centre for Sustainability, University of East London, University way, E16 2RD: Room: RD2.04 Hackathon space

What You’ll Experience

• Real stories and open discussions about living with PMDD, Fibroids, Endometriosis, and PCOS
• Practical tools for self-advocacy and navigating the NHS
• A safe community space to connect with women who truly understand
• Food and refreshments to support both body and mind

About the Host

Celia Manuel is a former actor, entrepreneur, and menstrual health advocate dedicated to raising awareness around women’s reproductive and mental health — particularly conditions that disproportionately affect Black women.

Through The Sharing Group, Celia has created a safe platform for women to share their stories, build confidence, and find solidarity in their health journeys.
