Midlife Women Together and The Menopause Club

Midlife Women Together and The Menopause Club
Location: Barcelona, Spain
Year founded: 2025
Stage: Grassroots community project moving toward association structure
Type: Community support and advocacy initiative for midlife women and menopause, combining peer groups, WhatsApp support, meetups, screenings, research, healthcare navigation, and psychological education
Midlife Women Together and The Menopause Club form a grassroots impact project focused on women’s health, midlife transition, and community support. The project’s core value is accessibility: it offers shared knowledge, peer care, emotional safety, and practical navigation outside costly private support structures. Its methodology combines community connection, informal education, psychological reflection, and lived-experience advocacy. The strongest differentiation is its focus on women who are dealing not only with symptoms, but also with migration, language barriers, identity shifts, and institutional dismissal. The project is preparing to move toward formal association status, which would allow access to grants, workplace education, public-health partnerships, and broader advocacy. Its long-term value lies in making menopause and midlife support visible, accessible, and socially recognized.
