Wisdom Trust Charity Of The Week 24-02-2009
Charity Of The Week.
Wellbeing of Women.
Wellbeing of Women is the only UK charity dedicated to solving the health problems that affect women by funding medical research and training into all aspects of reproductive health.
We focus on 3 key areas:
- Pregnancy and birth - e.g. premature birth, infertility, recurrent miscarriage
- Gynaecological cancers - e.g. ovarian, cervical and uterine
- Everyday problems - e.g. period pain, endometriosis, menopause, incontinence, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Half of all women in the UK still experience a reproductive health problem during their lifetime, be it trouble conceiving, intensely painful periods or gynaecological cancer. Wellbeing of Women is the only charity dedicated to changing this by funding medical research that will benefit these women and the professionals who diagnose and treat them.
Over the past 40 years we have invested over £27m to fund the very best in medical research and training, resulting in some remarkable progress. In fact every woman living in the UK since 1964 will have benefited from advances in healthcare made possible by Wellbeing of Women.
Wellbeing of Women is committed to transforming women’s health. Yet, despite our best efforts, we still receive more research grant applications than we are able to fund.
With more help, we could support more projects and discover solutions that will enable women to get more out of life.

Take Care When Exploring Rock Pools.
Exploring the coastline can be fun, but do take great care when exploring rock pools. Many creatures are very small and can be easily damaged.
