Clearly, women and the companies that employ them must get the support they need to address this issue and reverse the tide. Join this online webinar with Julia Oyeleye, a professional menopause coach and wellbeing expert, to learn how menopause affects women in the workplace and what they and their employers can do to reduce the potential negative impacts of this natural life stage. Julia will also share simple but effective techniques for managing the top five menopause symptoms, and how to have conversations at work about this important topic.

Working in pairs, volunteers will host short interviews to help young people taking part in Bankside Futures this summer to gain useful experience by answering questions about themselves and their achievements. You will be given an interview guide to help you prepare and run the interviews, including a set of interview questions plus feedback forms.  You will also be given mini CVs for each 'candidate' you will interview so you can ask questions related to their skills, experience and future ambitions. At the end of the activity, your feedback will be gathered and discussed with the Bankside Futures team, so that recommendations can be shared with the young people to help them prepare for real-life interviews in the future. As well as in-person interviews, we also need one or two "remote volunteers" who can host online interviews, given how commonplace these are now.  The Bankside Futures team will set up the online interview, so you just need to log on from your device, whether you are in the office or working remotely. You don't need to be an HR professional to sign up for this activity, as it's a great way to develop your skills and confidence as an interviewer. THIS EVENT IS NOW FULLY BOOKED. If you are interested in other ways to support young people get ready for work, please get in touch with Rachel Nicholson.

If you've ever felt confused about the many different nutrition and diet messages shared in media and books, Nicola's talk should really help you to feel a lot clearer, and importantly, less worried about understanding what the 'right' way to eat is. Her aim is to cover the basics of what nutrition actually is, enabling you to start making connections between what you eat and how you feel. She will teach you how to make small, sensible and practical adaptations to your daily routine and diet to support metabolism, energy, focus, hormones and digestive health, so that you leave with more clarity and confidence, and an enlightened and positive approach to food and eating. In this informal event you'll have plenty of opportunity to ask Nicola questions about food, nutrition and health, making this a powerful and unique opportunity to gain knowledge and insight that can be directly linked to helping you as an individual. There will also be plenty of time to get to know other women who work in Bankside and foster new connections.

"We all have our purpose, we all have our strengths." Beyoncé We'll be joined by Genelle Aldred, a communications consultant, to explore how confidence and communication are two things that can be the difference between those women who are like the best-kept secrets, and those who are well-recognised and known for what they can do. 'Tall poppy syndrome' can make some women not want to be seen as showing off, being too much, or drawing unwanted attention to themselves.  It seems that those women who do, are either chopped down or not seen as 'nice girls'; however they are also the ones that get ahead, change the world and get the opportunities. Or does it all just seem this way because of how society judges women who are confident and ambitious? Genelle will explore this topic, how to worry less about the invisible "they", and learn how to communicate in a way that will help you to celebrate your strengths and purpose.  She will also share some practical tips on how to be a confident and effective communicator. There will also be plenty of time to get to know other women who work in Bankside and foster new connections.

Clearly, women and the companies that employ them must get the support they need to address this issue and reverse the tide. Join this online webinar with Julia Oyeleye, a professional menopause coach and wellbeing expert, to learn how menopause affects women in the workplace and what they and their employers can do to reduce the potential negative impacts of this natural life stage. Julia will also share simple but effective techniques for managing the top five menopause symptoms, and how to have conversations at work about this important topic.
