Two Thirds Of Menopausal Women Are Not Supported In Work

Workshop to help employers support women going through menopause

Leading Wellbeing Consultant, Karina Todd, has warned employers need to do more to support women going through the menopause as she prepares to host a virtual workshop on World Menopause Day (October 18) for senior managers and human resources teams.

With 62% of menopausal women reporting they felt they did not receive enough support, the free Menopause Matters at Work one-hour lunch and learn session will cover everything from the basics through to gold standard practice.

Karina, who runs a coaching and consultancy business, warned that there is a very real impact to organisations who do not support women going through the menopause.

“By refusing to tackle this issue, the employer is risking losing very experienced staff as women continue to leave their jobs as they do not feel valued, listened to or engaged,” she explained. “And, for those women who do stay with the employer, absenteeism and presenteeism may present a problem due to increased sick leave levels and a drop in productivity.”

The evidence that many employers are not doing enough is mounting.

“We recently conducted some initial research involving 200 menopausal women in the workplace in Northern Ireland,” Karina said. “A staggering 86% responded that they feel their employer could do more to support employees going through menopause.”

“Furthermore, 62% of the women surveyed said that they do not feel supported by their employer as they go through menopause.”

Karina warns that this can mean organisations are failing their staff with the additional risk of potential harm to the organisation on many levels.

“An employer has a duty of care to its employees and ignoring the effects of menopause in the workplace puts the employer at risk of potential breaches which could result in legal claims made by employees as has been reported recently in the press.”

Her Menopause Matters at Work workshop aims to help equip management with the tools to understand what needs to be done, and how to do it.

“Effective management of menopause in the workplace can be achieved by taking some time to assess the current position, training staff, offering reasonable adjustments and opening clear lines of communication within the organisation.”

“It is time for Northern Ireland employers to lift their heads out of the sand and, by committing to make some changes, all staff, managers and even the bottom line will benefit.”

Karina believes that organisations must now seize the opportunity to step up to the challenge.

“Many businesses across Northern Ireland are doing nothing to address this very important topic which affects 51% of the population,” she said. “Many of those organisations who have started to address this issue simply view it as a ‘tick box’ exercise and believe that by simply having a Menopause Policy, they are doing enough.”

“I am on a mission to change this by making businesses across Northern Ireland ‘menopause-friendly’ and by ensuring that women going through the menopause while working feel heard, valued and respected.”

“In today’s competitive market, businesses must become equipped with tools and techniques to ensure they attract, support, engage and retain female staff – it’s not just the bottom line that will benefit.”

Footballing Legend Gerry Armstrong Launches Spirit Of 82 Whiskey

By

Iconic new whiskey celebrates Northern Ireland’s most iconic footballing moment

Northern Ireland footballing hero of the 1982 World Cup, Gerry Armstong has launched a limited edition whiskey, Spirit of 82 that celebrates that iconic moment when the team defied all the odds. 

Armstong struck the winning goal against the hosts, Spain, on June 25 and now he has produced a whiskey as a tribute to the dedication and passion displayed by our team during that extraordinary match.  

It was in the 47th minute against the favourites for the tournament in their own heartland of Valencia that Armstrong scored and the Northern Ireland team fought their way to hold on to the lead and etch their name into footballing history. 

Already Armstrong’s new blend is receiving plaudits from many quarters, including those close to home. 

“The whisky process takes years but when people started drinking it their reactions were fantastic and very complimentary,” the Belfast man explained. 

“My father is an expert in whiskey drinking and said it was very smooth and easy to drink and reminded him of one of his favourite well known Irish brands.” 

The number nine of Northern Ireland on that special night said he worked with the right people to develop Spirit of 82, and make sure that he had a whiskey he was proud to bear his name. 

“After speaking with my good friend Peter Lavery I thought I must make a whiskey of my own choice and he helped me to select the type of whiskey I like” he said. 

“We went through the tasting procedures and eliminated the whiskey we didn’t think was good enough until we came up with the Spirit of 82. 

“All in all it was a fantastic process, it’s not easy to bring a whiskey to market but I have loved every step of the journey. 

“Having the right people around you to help and advise is very important and I’m delighted that Spirit of 82 has a fantastic team behind the scenes looking after it all.”

Businessman Peter Lavery, consulted on the entire project to craft the Spirit of 82 expression.  

“I was honoured to work alongside Gerry on this project,” he said. 

“He’s a Northern Ireland legend and a man I’m proud to call a friend.

“Spirit of 82 is the perfect celebration of him, the history and the whole spirit of Northern Ireland.”

Armstrong’s wife Deborah came up with the name of the whiskey, which matches the thoughts and memories of every football fan, whether those that travelled to cheer on Northern Ireland, or where glued to television sets across the country.

Tasting notes for the Spirit of 82 reveal what is in store for whiskey connoisseurs. Its nose is a blend of creamy honey nut and delicate floral hints. On the palate, there is soft vanilla, green apple, and a touch of allspice. The finish is warming, with a medium length and lingering spice.

Lavery said: “Each sip is a taste of dedication and passion, taking you on a journey back to the spirit of 1982.”

Amstrong was already a notable club player at Watford but it was on the international stage, however, where he etched his name into football folklore. He represented Northern Ireland with passion and pride, donning the green jersey and showcasing his talent on the world stage. The pinnacle of his international career came in the summer of 1982 at the FIFA World Cup held in Spain. Northern Ireland entered the 1982 World Cup as underdogs, facing formidable opponents in the group stage.

Armstrong’s heroics began in the opening match against Yugoslavia, where the team secured a 0-0 draw. They then went on to draw 1-1 with Honduras thanks to Armstrong’s first half goal. However, it was in the following match against the host nation, Spain, that Armstrong would write his name in the annals of football history. 

In one of the most thrilling encounters of the tournament and the World Cup’s legacy, Northern Ireland faced Spain in Valencia.

The odds were stacked against them as they faced a Spanish team brimming with talent and backed by a passionate home crowd. But Armstrong and his teammates were undaunted. As the match reached its climax, with the score level at 0-0, Gerry Armstrong seized a golden opportunity. 

In the 47th minute, he pounced on a defensive mistake and buried the ball into the back of the net, putting Northern Ireland ahead at 1-0. The stadium fell silent as Armstrong celebrated his historic goal, and his teammates rallied to defend their lead. 

The final whistle marked a historic triumph for Northern Ireland and a moment of pure jubilation for Armstrong and his compatriots. Their victory over Spain was not just a football match; it was a testament to the indomitable spirit of a small nation that dared to dream.

Armstrong’s goal against Spain became an iconic moment, not only for Northern Ireland but for football fans around the world. It was the second time the team has managed in their history to make the World Cup quarter finals. It has since become a symbol of the underdog’s triumph, a reminder that passion and determination could overcome the greatest of challenges.

‘Let’s Celebrate’ Lurgan with a Rising Star Family Fun Day

By

Lurgan is celebrating its status as a Rising Star on Saturday 28th October with a busy family fun day and free parking in all council owned car parks, culminating in a Lantern Walk through the centre.

Urban ABC and Lurgan Working Group have come together to plan a fun-filled day of events including free walking tours, a treasure hunt, storytelling, pumpkin carving, lego displays and street entertainment.

The celebration is happening after Lurgan came first in the Rising Star category at the ‘Let’s Celebrate Towns’ Awards, sponsored by Visa and the British Retail Consortium, earlier this year.

Only 30 towns were shortlisted for eight different award categories designed to be a nationwide showcase celebrating the hundreds of towns across the UK. Competing towns were challenged to highlight a range of exciting initiatives, including business and council partnerships to drive investment, and local mentoring to support local businesses, as part of the application process.

Lord Mayor of Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon, Alderman Margaret Tinsley said:

“We are proud to support and celebrate Lurgan and its Rising Star Award. This family fun day is the ideal way to include the entire community and showcase the local businesses, arts and culture, and spirit of the town.”

“A particular emphasis was placed by the judging panel on recognising towns that clearly demonstrated support for local business and community initiatives. This win demonstrates the hard work and commitment of the people of Lurgan.”

All Rising Star Family Fun Day events are free and there will be free car parking on Saturday 28th October across the town centre. Events start at 10am and the Lantern Walk will begin at 5.40pm leaving Brownlow Courtyard and finishing at the Linen Bleacher Statues. Everyone is welcome.

Belfast 2024 set to deliver the city’s ‘biggest ever creative and cultural celebration’

By

Belfast City Council is investing £5.9 million to deliver the city’s biggest ever creative and cultural celebration, with a programme of world-class spectacle events and community-led activities planned for throughout the city in 2024, beginning next spring.

The Belfast 2024 programme will see the city come alive with ambitious, participative workshops, performances and events and an array of creative projects and initiatives, celebrating our homegrown culture, creativity and the city itself.

The investment was approved by all political parties earlier this autumn and follows extensive engagement with local cultural, community and arts providers over the last 18 months, as well as ongoing public consultation around how best to showcase Belfast’s many diverse and unique cultures.

People, Place and Planet will be the key themes in a programme of 24 large-scale commissions, that will bring over 200 events, workshops and activities to Belfast from March to November 2024.

Seventeen of the major events planned have been specially commissioned following an open call to artists, collectives and organisations earlier this year.

Together, they will provide a welcome financial boost to the cultural sector, supporting jobs and creating new opportunities for residents to enjoy, access and participate in the arts and creativity, encouraging visitors into Belfast to support the local economy, and showcasing the city as a global destination for culture.

Signature events in development so far include:

  • Eden Project Partnership – Belfast City Council has been working in collaboration with Eden Project, based in Cornwall, to develop a partnership with Belfast. It will explore our relationship with nature and the climate crisis and how we re-evaluate and re-invent our urban spaces to be more sustainable and become more engaged with the natural world through creative and cultural interventions. Throughout 2024, Eden, together with local project partners, will deliver a series of city centre and neighbourhood interventions across Belfast focussed on greening and growing with local communities.

 

  • Public art, inspired by nature – Council is also working in collaboration with Oliver Jeffers, the Nerve Centre and the Eden Project on research and development around the potential for public art installations in Belfast city centre in April/May 2024. These will be based on the themes of nature, power and a greener city and highlight the importance of sustainability in the Belfast’s future development and growth.
  • Maritime-inspired events – a renewed focus on the River Lagan, highlighting our maritime heritage and re-engaging our people with the river, during summer and winter 2024.
    Maritime-themed concepts under development include a river pavilion, a mass boat-building project and beer and bread brewing activities, marking the city’s origins and connections with the River Farset.
  • Black Mountain Shared Space guerilla gardening project with creative lead Eileen McClory – an ambitious large-scale, multi-layered, multi-artform and multi-event project throughout 2024. It aims to rewild peace walls in west Belfast into vibrant, inclusive, vertical gardens for the future, through dance, storytelling and gardening, while inspiring civic pride and activism within local communities.
  • Celebrating the International Decade of African Descent – Kwame Daniels and Bounce Culture will present an immersive music event as a finale to a city-wide engagement project, inspired by Frederick Douglass’ famous quote about feeling at home in Belfast during his time here in 1800s.

    This unique project, in autumn 2024, will showcase local, contemporary black culture in the city in the final year of this commemorative decade.

  • Immersive Experience at Thompson Dry Dock – developed in partnership with architect Henry Sykes and Three’s Theatre Company, this spectacle event in late summer/early autumn 2024 will combine light, shadow, colour and sound and take place in the iconic dock where the Titanic was launched. 40 feet below sea level, it will invite the audience to participate and experience the world around them from a different perspective.
  • City of Music event – a major event in autumn 2024, celebrating Belfast’s local music scene and highlighting our UNESCO City of Music designation.

“This is a hugely ambitious and exciting step forward for Belfast,” said Lord Mayor of Belfast, Councillor Ryan Murphy. “By investing in the arts in this way, we are creating new opportunities to protect, sustain and develop employment in a sector which is a catalyst for so much of our local economy.

“The city’s arts and cultural community have had real input into this programme, as have our residents through a variety of creative engagement, events, workshops and pilot projects – they’ve told us what they think will attract people to come into the city and make the most of their time here, as well as what works best to encourage communities to get involved in creativity and really make Belfast 2024 their own.

“The spectacle events being developed will draw in the crowds while delivering powerful, thought-provoking messages around diversity, inclusion and sustainability, but I’m also delighted to see so many activities planned which draw upon our own personal experiences of culture, and shine a light on how, together, they make up the fabric of our city.

“I’m so excited to have Belfast 2024 kicking off in my year in office and would encourage everyone to get involved in taking part and attending events as they are announced – let’s show what we, as a city, can offer and get behind this celebration of what Belfast is, and what it can be in the future.”

As part of the Belfast 2024 programme, 16 artists from the council’s creative bursary programme will also work in partnership with creative teams and local communities throughout 2024 to create a lasting legacy of participation and interest in the arts, with projects exploring themes of identity and belonging and showcasing and celebrating new and minority communities, along with elements of traditional culture. British Council NI are also partnering with the council to deliver six international artist residencies, working with communities to deliver co-designed creative interventions across the city’s public realm.

A community-led Creative Citizens scheme is also planned, where local groups can put forward their own ideas for projects linked to the Belfast 2024 themes of People, Place and Planet. Residents will then be asked to vote for their favourite schemes to take place in neighbourhoods right across the city, all to be delivered during 2024.

A music heritage programme is also under development, with grants available for projects celebrating the city’s diverse musical heritage, while innovation and tech will also play a key role, including immersive initiatives focusing on play and digital technology.

Existing city offerings, including St Patrick’s Day, will also be enhanced as part of the Belfast 2024 programme, while local festivals such as the Belfast International Arts Festival, Outburst Arts Festival and Belfast Film Festival will host a series of events and shows as part of the wider offering for visitors and residents.

More details of the Belfast 2024 programme will be announced in due course and be available from belfastcity.gov.uk/belfast2024

Belfast Engineering Firm PAC Group To Supply Innovative Preformer For Airborne

By

The Belfast-based engineering and manufacturing firm PAC Group have been selected by Airborne to supply their innovative hot drape performer technology to an ambitious new aerospace project.

The cell being procured by UK aerospace company GKN Aerospace is a collaboration between leading engineering and manufacturing companies, with the aim of providing a fully automated preforming line to the Global Technology Centre in Bristol. 

Airborne are supplying the cell, integrating systems provided by PAC Group and the other companies involved in the project Accudyne and Assyst Bullmer. 

The system will comprise of sub-systems developed by each manufacturer, and will set out to fulfil the aims of the UK industry consortium project ASCEND.

ASCEND (Aerospace and Automotive Supply Chain Enabled Development), with lead partner GKN Aerospace, aims to usher in the next generation of energy-efficient aircraft through the acceleration of composite materials and process technologies. Valued at £40 million, ASCEND has been made possible through a £20 million investment from the industry, and a commitment of £19.6 million by the UK government funded by the ATI Programme (a partnership between Department for Business and Trade, Aerospace Technology Institute, and Innovate UK).

“We are delighted to be working with Joe Summers and the team at Airborne.” said Darren Leslie, Business Development Director at PAC Group. 

“It’s an honour to be able to contribute to this ambitious project, and we’re excited to be able to provide our innovative technology. Mr Leslie added. 

“We’re excited to be able to provide our technology, and look forward to supporting Airborne and other industry leaders in achieving their goal of a higher rate of manufacturing composite structures.”

The project will accelerate the production rate of aerospace technology and enable the greater adoption of composite technology. In doing so, the ASCEND project will help to secure the UK’s position as a technology leader in future lightweight structures for sustainable aircraft and mobility. 

“We’re proud of the sustainable nature of this project,” said Mr Leslie.

“It will contribute to the reduction of the industry’s carbon footprint and energy consumptions, whilst ushering in a new age of energy-efficient aircraft and future mobility.” 

Joe Summers, Managing Director at Airborne, commented on PAC’s involvement in the project. 

“PAC Group’s technology and hardware is exactly what we need to complement our Automated Ply Placement system to produce the 2D stacks,” said Mr Summers. 

“We are looking forward to working with the team at PAC Composites in order to offer a flexible automation solution and workflow automation, enabling a higher rate of the manufacturing of composite structures.”

PAC Group’s hot drape preformer forms an essential part of the Automated Preforming Cell. The Automated Preforming Cell transforms broad goods, including non-crimp fabrics or woven materials, in 3D preforms usable with Resin Transfer Molding (RTM). PAC Group’s preformer forms an essential part of the system, and will 3D form the preforms. 

PAC Group’s preformer – also known as a Hot Drape Former – has been recognised and commended for its innovative nature. In 2021, PAC Group was awarded the Queen’s Award for Innovation.

“As the leading specialist in the design and manufacture of Hot Drape Forming machines, we’re thrilled that we can bring our innovative technology to this industry-wide collaborative project,” said Gavin Rankin, Technical Director at PAC Group. 

“Each of our preformers are manufactured to the highest standards. Every component of the system is produced to an exceptional quality, with reliability and durability at the heart of their design.”

“We hold 42 patents on the hardware and software used in our preformers, solidifying our position at the forefront of the development of this innovative technology,” added Mr Rankin.

“We’ve serviced some of the biggest names in the automotive and aerospace industry and it’s great to now be involved in the impressive, industry-wide UK ASCEND project, and to have a part in accelerating UK composite material and process technology.”
