Celebrating International Women's Day

- Remembering the importance of health and well-being

March 8th is International Women’s Day , a global day celebrating the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future.    Today not only signifies the great work that women are carrying out, it also highlights the struggles and barriers that women face around the world, and why the search for change and equality continues.

  

To coincide with International Women's Day, RSPH Training Solutions has developed a one day programme on Women’s Health and Well-being to highlight the importance of women's health, whilst educating participants on how to empower women to live longer, healthier and happier lives.

All to often, in our busy lifestyles we forget the importance of looking after our health. But our health and mental well-being not only affects us, it has an impact on our family, friends and our wider community.  Therefore, although today is a celebration of women's achievement, we believe that maintaining good health should be a priority and practised everyday.    

The Women's Health and Well-being programme will examine the five essential elements of health and wellbeing – eat well, sleep well, play well, relax well, and move well, particularly as they relate to female hormonal changes at different stages of life.  Each is important for protection against certain conditions such obesity, diabetes, heart disease and osteoporosis.

After attending this day you will be equipped to play your part in improving the health of your community by identifying opportunities to improve women’s health and wellbeing, and evaluating what works best.

Anyone who works in a voluntary organisation, education or health and social care, with responsibility for health education, well-being, exercise, nutrition or personal care, will benefit from this new programme.
