Our Story
Learn more about our Journey so far and how we got started.
Your life-saving cancer treatment might have put you into an early menopause. This might be temporary or permanent. This might be because of surgery, anti hormone medication or radiotherapy. Or perhaps you were already in menopause and your cancer diagnosis meant you had to come off your HRT? We want to support all of you, regardless of where you are at, if you define as a woman or not, regardless of how long ago your cancer treatment was. Let’s open the conversation!
Dani’s Story – Our Founder
Despite a welcome increase in menopause awareness in recent years, Dani who has been diagnosed with breast cancer in her early 30’s and was later pushed into surgical menopause, found that support for people with a cancer diagnosis is still woefully lacking.
At first, Dani set out to create online support groups but soon realised that this was not enough. In collaboration with world leading menopause specialists and other other experts, Dani went on to create workshops, programs and The Menopause and Cancer podcast.
“I am so grateful for the input of so many Dr’s that help make our projects so successful”.
The ‘Navigating Menopause’ program which Dani co-curated with charity Trekstock went to win the ‘Campaigning for change award’ at the Markel 3rd sector care awards in 2023.
Finally, the not-for-profit Menopause and Cancer organisation was founded in 2022 to further extend our services and support as many people as possible.
How can I get involved?
It is our aim to make all of our services available to all people affected by cancer and menopause. Regardless of the type and stage of cancer and age.
