Coming together on the last Tuesday of the month is Menopause Meet Up.   Anyone who is affected by menopause can attend whether it is a woman or a partner.

This is a very informal  group and often it is just a chat to share tips and advice.

The next session is on Tuesday 26^th March at 7.30pm at the Lifestyles Area at the Pickaquoy Centre, Kirkwall.

Gail McAndrew will talk about aromatherapy and the menopause.  She will also introduce the idea of herbal treatments and some of the most common herbs used for menopause symptoms too.

Gail has been an aromatherapist for almost 20 years, has worked at Napiers  Herbal Healthcare in Edinburgh and lectured on aromatherapy and reflexology  at Stevenson College Edinburgh along with her massage practice.
