A £10,000 commission is available for a VCSE organisation or partnership to run face to face menopause support programmes in communities across Wakefield District.

Feedback from residents taking part in local health and wellbeing programmes showed that menopause is a significant barrier to women living healthy lives.

We know that a charity, community group or social enterprise could help! 

Could your organisation develop and deliver a programme? This is what it would require:

• 2 face-to-face support programmes around menopause and wellbeing, for a minimum of 8 weeks each with at least one 90-minute session each week
• Delivered in 2 community areas within Wakefield District, with a focus on areas of deprivation, in an inviting space within the community
• Support in the form of group-based sessions in the evening or weekend, integrating physical activity, menopause education and peer support
• Sessions to be interactive, inclusive and accessible for all involved

More details on the brief, monitoring and outcomes are in the Information Pack.

This commisssion will be delivered through the Third Sector Framework, a fair, open and transparent way of channelling funding to VCSE organisations in Wakefield District. The opportunity is open to all tiers of Framework members.

There's an online information session on Thursday 13 November, 1pm to 2pm. Email framework@nova-wd.org.uk for the link to join.

Applications close at 12pm on Friday 28 November.
