Menopause in Fire and Ambulance Conference 2025

Menopause in Fire and Ambulance Conference

Tuesday 9th September 2025, The Rep, Birmingham

Arrival from 9am (refreshments) for a 9.30am start, finish around 4.30pm

By popular demand, the Menopause in Fire conference is returning for its third year and we’re delighted to be joining forces with the College of Paramedics this year for a bumper blue light event!

We’re equally excited that menopause specialist, author and podcaster, Dr Louise Newson, will be joining us again as the keynote speaker and there will be lots of opportunities to ask her questions.

We’ll also be hosting a panel of fire service colleagues and paramedics who will be sharing their personal menopause stories during the popular ‘fireside chat’. This will include experiences of neurodiversity and menopause.

A draft agenda, subject to change is now available to view here. As part of the conference is learning from each other, in the afternoon there will be a number of different table topics for you to choose two, in half hour sessions. These will be a mix of delegates sharing experiences to help others, and learning from others. A great networking opportunity too!

Table topics are still to be confirmed but those being explored include:

• What should we be doing in workplaces to support employees going through menopause? Learning from others.
• Workplace adjustments
• Fitness and nutrition during menopause
• Better sleep
• Menopause and neurodiversity
• Easing symptoms – what works for you?

Please use the booking form to suggest other topics you would be interested in seeing on the day.

We are also hoping to organise a very informal networking event the evening before. More details to follow but it will be a great opportunity to meet others ahead of the next day’s conference.

The Menopause in Fire conference has received excellent feedback for the past two years and we hope to achieve the same this year!  Places are limited, so book your ticket soon!
