🏳️‍🌈 Celebrating LGBT History Month 🏳️‍🌈

Yesterday we were delighted to join Councillor Peter Barrett, and Atlas from Perth Parrots Floorball Club to mark the start of LGBT History Month, a time to honour the trailblazers who fought for equality, to reflect on the progress we’ve made, and to recommit ourselves to building a kinder, more inclusive Perthshire for all.

Perthshire Pride is proud to stand alongside our local leaders, community partners, and every LGBTQ+ person and ally who keeps pushing for visibility, dignity, and joy.

Here’s to a month of learning, celebrating, and uplifting the voices that shaped our history and continue to shape our future. 💜

It’s Time to Talk Day!

Across Tayside, workplaces are coming together to open up honest conversations about mental health. Time to Talk Day is the UK’s biggest mental health conversation bringing together friends, families, communities and workplaces to challenge stigma.

💬This year’s theme: “Making places stigma free for everyone.”
It encourages all settings- workplaces, schools, healthcare and more to recognise that people experience mental health stigma differently, and to take meaningful action to create supportive, inclusive spaces.

Looking for ways to spark conversations where you work?
See Me Scotland have a fantastic range of free resources to help raise awareness and challenge stigma- not just today, but all year round.

Talking openly and honestly can be the first step toward better mental health for everyone. When we break down stigma, we help people feel safe enough to seek support when they need it.

Explore free workplace resources & toolkits here:

Since the first phase of the Women’s Health Plan launched in 2021, progress has been made.

Scotland now has a women’s health champion, a women’s health platform on NHS Inform to ensure women can access the health information they need, and a dedicated research fund to begin to address inequality in women’s health research.

This is only the beginning.

Phase Two will take us further, turning progress into momentum, with bold new actions designed to make a real and lasting difference for women’s health.

Phase Two of the Women’s Health Plan aims to expand menstrual health education, improve diagnostic pathways to achieve faster diagnosis, and reduce waiting times for treatment to manage menstrual symptoms and conditions including fibroids, endometriosis, adenomyosis and polycystic o***y syndrome.

A focus on Gynaecology and Reproductive Health in the second phase of the
Women’s Health Plan, is vital to improve women's health in Scotland.

Menopause Cafe Perth - home of Menopause Cafe, is back at Blend Coffee Lounge, Perth.

🌸 Wednesday 4th February 2026 | 6 - 7.30pm 🌸

Menopause can feel confusing, isolating, or just plain overwhelming - but it doesn’t have to be something we go through alone.

Menopause Cafe Perth is a relaxed, welcoming space to come together, have a cuppa, and talk openly about menopause and perimenopause. No lectures, no awkward questions, no pressure - just real conversations, shared experiences, and plenty of understanding.

✨ Why come along?
• To feel heard and supported
• To learn from others going through the same stage
• To break the silence and stigma around menopause
• To realise you’re not “losing it” - you are not alone
• To find out more to support a colleague or loved one

Whether you’re in the thick of it, just starting to notice changes, or simply curious, you are welcome. Come as you are, bring a friend, or two and meet others for meaningful conversations.

📅 4th February 2026
☕ Conversations, connection, and community

Let's make menopause part of everyday conversation 💬💛

Women and girls deserve to be listened to and not dismissed.
