A community-focused event

- Barriers to accessing healthcare
- Preventive care and early intervention
- Mental and reproductive wellbeing
- This event will include expert insights, real conversations, and practical guidance.
On Saturday, 12 September 2026, DivyHealth will host the Women’s Health Action Summit in Liverpool, bringing women, healthcare professionals and community voices together for practical and open conversations about women’s health.
The summit is centred around a challenge many women recognise: knowing something has changed with your health, but not always knowing what to do next, when to seek help or where to go for the right support.
Symptoms can sometimes be normalised or lived with for months or even years. Work, family and caring responsibilities can take priority, while uncertainty about symptoms or navigating healthcare can also delay women from seeking help.
Under the theme “Moving Women from Awareness to Action,” the summit aims to go beyond simply raising awareness. The focus is on providing practical information women can use — helping them recognise symptoms, understand when and where to seek care, ask questions and make informed decisions about their health.
The programme will cover fibroids and heavy bleeding, menopause, mental wellbeing, fitness and women’s health, and when and where to seek care. Nutrition and lived experience will also form part of the day’s conversations.
A key part of the summit will be the panel discussion, The discussion will explore some of the personal, social and wider barriers that can influence when women seek healthcare and what can be done differently to support earlier access to care.
