This International Women’s Day, we’re proud to celebrate the 2026 theme - a campaign that highlights how giving support, knowledge, and visibility helps create opportunities and better outcomes for women.

The 7-Day GP's Women’s Health Hub is currently running as a pilot, offering women specialist support for conditions such as menopause, endometriosis, menstrual problems including, painful or irregular bleeding and premenstrual syndromes. Women can be referred into the Hub by their GP, ensuring they receive tailored care at the right time and in the right place.

The IWD theme encourages all of us to challenge bias, share expertise, and invest in women’s wellbeing - actions that sit at the heart of this pilot programme, which aims to make accessing women’s health services simpler and more joined‑up.

When we give women better pathways to care, everyone gains.

When women thrive, we all rise.

This International Women’s Day, we’re reflecting on the 2026 theme , which highlights how giving support, sharing knowledge, and creating open, understanding spaces can help advance women’s wellbeing.

As part of our ongoing commitment to supporting staff, our Clinical Nurse Lead Maggi is running a monthly Menopause Madness Hour, a friendly, informal chat for colleagues who want to learn more about peri/menopause, share experiences, or explore topics they’d like covered in future sessions. And yes… Maggi brings her homemade cakes too!

Creating spaces where women feel heard and supported reflects the call to challenge barriers, share knowledge, and uplift one another.

This International Women’s Day, we’re supporting the 2026 theme - because when we give women easier access to essential healthcare, we all gain a healthier future.
