Over the past six decades, Wellbeing of Women has invested over £75 million in hundreds of pioneering medical research projects focused on women’s health and wellbeing. We have celebrated incredible breakthroughs which have led to changes in treatment and improved care and outcomes for millions of women in the UK and around the world.

For example, today we take ultrasound screening of pregnant women and the HPV vaccine for granted, but these treatments are the result of research championed and funded by Wellbeing of Women. As we mark 60 years, we would like to celebrate these achievements but also look to the future and what more needs to be done to improve knowledge, treatments and access to care.

Women’s health research is still woefully underfunded and millions of women’s daily lives are made miserable because of undiagnosed or untreated conditions as they struggle to get the right information, to book routine appointments, and to get their basic needs met.

With your support, Wellbeing of Women can change this legacy, transforming the future of women’s health whilst changing lives today. We are doing this by investing in world class research, championing education, tackling taboos, influencing guidelines, policy and practice and empowering women to advocate for themselves.

Women are the cornerstone of our society, so when we get it right for women and girls, everyone benefits.
