🌎 World Menopause Day 🌎

🌍 Purpose

The day aims to raise awareness about menopause, break the stigma surrounding it, and support women’s health and wellbeing during midlife and beyond. It encourages education, open discussion, and better access to healthcare for those experiencing menopause and perimenopause.

💡 Key Messages
•Menopause is a natural biological process, not a disease.
•Support through education, workplace policy, and healthcare is essential.
•Open conversations help normalize the experience and reduce stigma.

The Common Ailments Service is available free of charge at participating pharmacies, offering help for a range of common health problems – from head lice and athlete’s foot to sore throats and urinary tract infections (UTIs).
We are pleased to share that the UTI service and the Sore Throat Test and Treat service are now fully included within the Common Ailments Service.

This means these services should be available in every pharmacy.

What patients can expect:

·Expert advice and treatment: Pharmacists are trained to assess symptoms, provide guidance, and supply treatment if required.

·Point of care testing: for sore throats and UTIs a simple test may be carried out to check if antibiotics will work.

·Fast and confidential care:
Consultations are confidential and typically available within 24 hours.
Access within 48 hours – if the service is unavailable at a chosen pharmacy patients can be directed to a neighbouring pharmacy to ensure they are seen.
This expansion makes it easier than ever for people to access safe, expert care without needing a GP appointment.

📣 It’s Diabetic Hypo Heroes Week! (6–12 October)

💙 What are we doing?
• Spotting the signs – learn to recognise when someone might be having a hypo
• Learning the symptoms – understand what to look out for
• Knowing the treatments – be confident in how to help

Let’s all be Hypo Heroes and help keep each other safe! 🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️

Breast cancer is a common cancer, especially in women, with millions of cases diagnosed globally and in the UK each year. While it can affect men and younger women, it is most prevalent in women over 50. Early detection through screening, like mammograms, significantly improves survival rates.
