MENOPAUSE AWARENESS MONTH - OCTOBER 2026
Let's pause the silence around menopause.
This October, join workplaces across Australia starting conversations, raising awareness and supporting Menopause Alliance Australia.
Menopause affects more than the individual experiencing it.
Around 75% of women experience symptoms during perimenopause and menopause, with 1 in 4 facing moderate to severe symptoms that can significantly affect their work, relationships and quality of life.
Yet too often, these experiences are met with silence and stigma rather than understanding and support.
This Menopause Awareness Month, we’re asking workplaces across Australia to Hit the Pause, start the conversation and help create cultures where menopause can be talked about openly.
Small actions can start important conversations.
start a conversation
Host a morning tea, take a lunchtime walk or bring your team together using our conversation starters. Nothing elaborate is needed. The goal is simply to create space for a conversation that too often goes unspoken.
support the campaign
Help fund the work of Menopause Alliance Australia by donating or encouraging your team to contribute throughout October. Every donation supports our education and support services.
keep the conversation going
Use Menopause Awareness Month as a starting point, not an end point. Keep building awareness, understanding and open conversations around perimenopause and menopause as part of your workplace culture.
