BEVApod Life: Menopause: supporting the women in our profession with Liz Barton and Gemma Dransfield

Menopause is an increasingly hot topic for the general population, but there are aspects of equine veterinary work which can make elements of this normal ageing process more challenging for those affected and the people around them. Liz talks us through the basic understanding which we all need in order to fully support our workforce during those times, and Gemma relays how far-reaching the impact of menopause is, from the very subtle to the more obvious!
