This month, it’s all about changing the face of men’s health.

Movember shines a light on men’s mental health, su***de prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer, and reminds us why conversations, connection, and support matter.

🎗 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

In a previous episode of The Talk Works Podcast, we spoke to Claire McLean, founder of Realise HR and Chair of Northern Cancer Voices, about her experience of being diagnosed with breast cancer at 37 and how workplaces can better support those affected by cancer.

This honest, moving conversation is a reminder that compassionate support at work really matters. 💗

1 in 10 women leave their jobs because of menopause. Not because they want to, but because they feel unsupported.

Menopause can bring brain fog, fatigue, anxiety, and sleep problems. It can also make everyday work feel overwhelming.

The good news - you have rights. You’re entitled to reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act if your symptoms amount to a disability. That could mean flexible working, breaks, or changes to your environment.

Most importantly, you deserve to feel supported, seen, and heard at work. 💜

Today marks World Mental Health Day and this year’s theme is access to services - mental health in catastrophes and emergencies. It is a reminder that everyone deserves support, especially in uncertain times.

Let’s keep making mental health support accessible for everyone, everywhere.
