LBT+ Women's Health Week 2024 Events
Welcome to our calendar of events for LBT+ Women's Health Week 2024. Below are events being held by the National LGBT Partnership and other LGBTQIA+ organisations and individuals. Please click on the title of the event(s) you are interested in attending to sign up or get further information.
*LBT+ Women's Health Week is a week aimed at lesbian, bisexual and trans women, and frontline workers and healthcare providers who work with them. Occasionally, our events cover topics that are widely considered to be "women's" health issues, such as as fertility, menopause, menstruation, cervical health, etc. We recognise that such issues are not limited to cis women, and that some trans, non-binary & intersex people may relate to these experiences. Therefore, we advertise our events as being open to LBT+ women and femme-aligned people — if you feel an event is right for you, then it is.
