Wellbeing of Women

Following recent coverage surrounding X’s AI tool Grok, we’ve made the decision to leave the platform.

We will always champion the safety of women and advocate for measures that protect them both on and offline. For this reason, we can’t remain on a platform that creates, publishes or promotes harmful material.

We want our information to remain as accessible as possible. While we won’t be posting on X, our profile will be left as it is for anyone who needs it, but please note that we won’t be monitoring any comments or messages.

If you need us, please reach out through Instagram, Facebook, TikTok or LinkedIn.

Make women’s health a part of your legacy by leaving a gift in your will.

Wellbeing of Women’s research has already contributed to treatments that are saving the lives of countless women and babies, but there's still so much work to do.

By writing your will and including a charitable gift, you’ll be supporting research, education and advocacy for women, girls and babies.

That’s why we’ve partnered with expert estate planners, @octopuslegacy , to offer you the chance to write or update your will for free.

Last week, Wellbeing of Women took women’s health research to Westminster for the Association of Medical Research Charities Showcase!

With only 2.4% of public and charity-funded research invested in reproductive health and childbirth in the UK, the need for progress has never been clearer. Over the past 60 years, we've stepped in to help fill this gap, investing more than £75 million to drive breakthroughs that improve, and save, women’s lives.

At the Showcase, parliamentarians got hands-on with our research through interactive demos, brought to life by two of our remarkable researchers - Dr Nicola Tempest and Dr Marianne Watters, whose vital research into menstrual fluid could help diagnose conditions like fibroids and adenomyosis.

We were also delighted to engage with so many including Dr Zubir Ahmed MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Health Innovation and Safety, Emily Darlington MP, and Nicola Perrin MBE, CEO of AMRC, all of whom took time to learn about our work and champion the importance of women’s health.

A huge thank you to all who visited our stand and to everyone advancing innovation across the sector. From our bold props, to our bright colours, and even some crocheted uteruses, it was a joy to see women’s health so powerfully represented.
