Really hope that people will also be donating to @FTWW_Wales!🙏
It is only because of their work that a new strategy was developed &things are starting to improve for #endometriosis patients in #Wales. Important to recognise grassroots / patient-led charities getting stuff done!

As part of @EngageBritain's work on developing solutions to the UK's #health & #care challenges, @FTWW_Wales last night hosted the first of two Community Conversations, this one focused on #endometriosis in #Wales. THANK YOU to our members for their powerful & moving insights.

V. proud of Vice-Chair @RachelRow19 & volunteer @LaraCowpe for their contribution to the @FinancialTimes today. It explores the issues accessing #healthservices in #Wales which, for women, can be compounded by a global lack of recognition for their specific health needs.
NHS is a big issue in Welsh Senedd elections. Thanks to @FTWW_Wales @vaughangething for being open about some difficult issues ft.com/content/5a2e98bc-2b17… via @financialtimes

This month, FTWW published its patient-led manifesto, 'Make Women's Health a Priority for Wales' in the run-up to 2021's Welsh Parliament elections. Available in English and Cymraeg, check it out and share widely - thank you!: ftww.org.uk/manifesto-2021/

I feel that the biggest challenge of this online-class/work-from-home culture is that a lot of times, people thought that "you are at home."
Which is true and not true.
Ye, we are in the house, but that doesn't mean that we're just chilling and relaxing without reason.

On 23 March we will join the National #DayOfReflection and remember those that we have lost.
Main Building will turn yellow in memory of those who have lost their lives during the pandemic.

As evidence emerges of the higher risk females face in developing #LongCovid, @theipaper explores sex & gender bias in healthcare, looking at #ME #fibromyalgia and @FTWW_Wales staff member @deemontague's story: inews.co.uk/opinion/chronic-…?

Are you with us? The continued pandemic is no doubt a barrier to many in accessing care, and that’s why we need to shout louder than ever before about why those with endometriosis must not be left behind.

Why do we need to #TeachMenstrualWellbeingWales? So that no child ever again has to sit in a school toilet cubicle in excruciating pain, bleeding into the basin + wondering if their life if worth living because they’ve been told that their experience is “normal.” @FTWW_Wales
