Past press and podcasts
Here is some real breaking news – we’re about to compile some broadcasts for you to download.
Our charity has entered the podcast age thanks to a wonderful contact we made in local radio, recently.
More details will be emerging soon.
A new page listing some of our old stories is being developed for our website, too. Such is the pace of endo change these days that our Home page is updated almost daily – meaning some of you haven’t had the chance to read our latest news!
You can find this at RECENTNEWS
Finally an appeal to any would-be blog-writers out there. The analytics show us that personal tales of battling endometriosis are extremely popular – and no doubt inspire others facing the blight.

Don't Bury your head in the sand
Endometriosis, and indeed many other life-altering illnesses, can result in depression, anxiety and other wellbeing problems.
We have just produced a new Mental Health Matters page on our website, which includes details of a Talking Therapies programme in Bury. Go to MENTALHEALTHMATTERS
This was presented to us – and in fantastic style we may add – by Pauline Maliti from the NHS Pennine Care Foundation Trust.
Read all about it and download the PDF.
Most of all sisters, don’t suffer in silence!
Your mental health matters
We have just launched a new page on our website with what is going to be vital wellbeing support for those with endo - MENTALHEALTHMATTERS
And we’ve begun by outlining the effectiveness of Talking Therapies – a discipline that trained professionals employ to get you to chat about your thoughts, feelings and behaviours.
The theory is explored in a blog by our founder Dr Sharma and a case study from the NHS in Bury, Greater Manchester.
Waring physical pain allied to feelings of frustration and even anger can make such an impact on the wellbeing of everyone managing a life-limiting illness, especially endo.
The success of the page will rely on YOU, too. Coping with mental health issues is always more effective when we hear other people’s experiences and how they found their way through the dark forest.
So own your new page - and send us your thoughts!
Make it a moving movie night
A few short days after its premiere in Yorkshire, you can now see the full version of the film “No Longer #Unheard.”
Featuring heart-rendering interviews with those battling endometriosis, it also includes a one-to-one with our founder Dr Anita Sharma – watch at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kP8fjHSBWM&t=12s
We have already put it on record several times, but we’ll say it again, the work of the creative media students from Shipley College is superb.
Please share the movie with everyone you can.
It is a powerful polemic on the importance of endometriosis awareness.
