Menstrual Health Project presents: An evening for Endometriosis
Sat 23 Mar 2024 6:00 PM - 12:00 AM
Lion Quays Hotel & Spa, SY11 3EN
Description
Join us, Menstrual Health Project, for a fun filled evening of food, music, entertainment, shopping and more to raise awareness for endometriosis.
Endometriosis is a systematic inflammatory incurable condition that impacts 1 in 10 women and those assigned female at birth in the UK. It is a debilitating disease that can impact a person's most vital organs often leading to organ damage or loss. Historically, we have not spoken about conditions like endometriosis through of judgement or shame. As a charity, we work towards reducing stigma in educating people about these conditions, but also to empower others to advocate for themselves in order to access the correct care.
We hope you can attend our event to help us raise money to help us carry on the essential work we doing in improving menstrual health education within educational and workplace settings plus fund vital endometriosis research which is being carried out by Dr Barbara Guinn and a team of researchers from University of Hull. They are developing a urine test which may help detect endometriosis (Profits from the night will be split evenly).
We will be having an incredible buffet in the form of an Italian feast! Please ensure you let us know any dietary requirements you have for yourself or others when booking your tickets.
