Undercurrents
Undercurrents is a supportive group for women in the East Midlands who are experiencing perimenopause or menopause. It focuses on exploring the positive benefits of spending time in and around water — known as blue spaces — to help ease symptoms and support overall wellbeing.
Created by women with lived experience, the group shares knowledge and personal stories to help others discover how blue spaces can contribute to a happier, healthier menopause journey.
Open to anyone of any age who wants to learn more, better understand, and share experiences of perimenopause and menopause, Undercurrents brings women together to connect, offer peer support, try new activities, and enjoy the restorative benefits of time spent near water in a welcoming and supportive environment.
We would like to thank Rachel Hazell aka the travelling book binder for providing some funding to kickstart this project. Rachel was so inspired by the charity's work that she dedicated all the profits from one of her books to the charity. Called "Todays Changing Room" the book features luminous beaches, ancient rocks and crystal clear Hebridean waters. Its a series of snapshots of the iconic Scottish Island of Iona through the seasons. The arc of the year can be read as a mindful journey through all weathers. To find out more please visit:
