We are proud partners of Menopause and Cancer, a non-profit organisation founded by Dani Binnington, dedicated to supporting women after cancer.

When Dani Binnington received her cancer diagnosis at the age of 33, her initial focus wasn’t on aiding fellow survivors through a better menopause journey. Her primary drive was ensuring she’d witness her three little girls stepping through the school gates.

Today however, she stands as a passionate advocate for patients, lending her voice to women navigating menopause post-cancer. As the host of the world’s sole Menopause and Cancer podcast, she sheds light on this vital topic.

“We become a woman’s thinking partner. Often, helping to navigate the medical system, looking at all the evidence based solutions available to us, looking at our belief system and finding ways to move forward. Every woman deserves to know her options. I am grateful to have the support of some key specialists to support our work.”

Many women describe the experience of managing menopause after cancer as even more challenging than undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgery. They often express a sense of isolation—feeling like part of a “forgotten tribe.” While hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is widely discussed, it’s not a straightforward or safe option for many cancer survivors.

Dani, the founder of the non-profit organisation Menopause And Cancer, is on a mission to change that. Through her work, she supports and educates women about the options available to them, empowering them to navigate their unique paths through menopause after cancer. She hosts The Menopause And Cancer podcast, which draws over 20,000 monthly downloads and ranks in the top 15% of podcasts globally.

“Menopause is never a one-size-fits-all situation,” Dani says. “We must rely on evidence-based information, make it accessible, and recognise that every woman needs a tailored approach.”

Building on the success of her Empowered Menopause programs, Dani partnered with Trekstock—a charity supporting young adults in their 20s and 30s affected by cancer—to launch the UK’s first menopause program specifically for younger women with cancer. This pioneering initiative earned the “Campaigning for Change” award at the 2023 Markel 3rd Sector Care Awards.

Her voice continues to reach broad audiences through numerous podcast appearances and national media features. She has contributed to a range of publications and appeared on ITV’s This Morning, where she shared her story and helped shed light on an often-overlooked journey.
