Bookings are encouraged to secure a space onto the free workshops. You do not need to book a space if you want to find support or speak to any of the organisations on the day.
We are inviting the community in Minehead and surrounding areas to join us for this free event designed to connect women and girls with trusted health information, local support services and opportunities to improve their wellbeing!
This event has been developed in response to the need for more accessible health and wellbeing support within West Somerset. By bringing together 20+ local organisations under one roof, we're making it easier for women and girls to discover the advice, services and activities available in their community, all in one place.
Throughout the day you'll be able to:
- Hear expert talks on topics including nutrition, pelvic health, menstrual health, bone health and mental wellbeing.
- Try free wellbeing activities including yoga, Pilates, dance fitness and mindfulness.
- Meet over 20 organisations offering advice, support and services, including sexual health, community organisations, housing and wellbeing support, public health teams and more.
- This event aims to creating stronger connections between services and helping ensure women and girls know where to turn for support long after the event has finished.
