At Great British Speakers, we’re here to help make your event successful. Using our awareness days calendar, you can easily plan ahead to ensure you secure the best speaker for your day. Our corporate events calendar is also here to inspire you on ways to help motivate your audience and/or employees this year.
Some of the biggest events on the Awareness Days calendar include International Women’s Day (March 8th) and Black History Month (October). Both have become pivotal for raising awareness of EDI concerns within society and the workplace.
We also focus on the importance of Mental Health, with World Mental Health Day (10th October) and Mental Health Awareness Week (12th – 18th May 2025), as well as International Men’s Day (November 19th), which is a powerful reminder for men to take care of their own health and mental well-being.
The calendar below includes all these and many more occasions. However, we know there are many more important awareness days than those we’ve listed, so we will continue to update our events calendar as often as possible to provide you with the latest event news and the best topical speakers on the circuit.

Although peri-menopause and menopause are increasingly discussed in mainstream media, they remain somewhat taboo, leaving many women to struggle in silence. At Great British Speakers, we offer a diverse selection of female speakers who openly share their experiences and provide valuable insights on how businesses can better support their employees.
Elizabeth Joseph has been many things in her life: an actress, a head-hunter, a teacher (with a Master’s degree in Applied Linguistics and another Master’s degree in Education) and a stay-at-home mum. She has recently reinvented herself as a freelance writer and columnist about perimenopause, menopause, and midlife. In her fifties, she has also become a classic, pro-age model. Not to mention a social media midlife influencer known as The Menopause Guinea Pig, who has 7K+ followers and is growing.

Navigating Menopause: Insights from Leading Women’s Health Speakers
Dr Nighat Arif is a family GP specialising in women’s health, including menopause, family planning, and female health equality. She fronted the BBC Breakfast campaign ‘Wake Up To The Menopause,’ where Nighat hosted segments about eliminating the stigma surrounding menopause for people of all cultures. As an outreach clinician, she often meets with other clinicians such as doctors, nurses, community teams, and residents to discuss the unmet health needs of the female BAME community, who are less likely to engage with health professionals.
