When Dani Binnington received her cancer diagnosis, 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. However, today, 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 yet overlooked intersection. 

Many women tell me they feel as if they have no option. That managing menopause after cancer is harder than chemo,- radiotherapy and surgery all together. That they feel like the 'forgotten tribe'. 

HRT is on everyone’s lips, but for many cancer patients, hormone replacement therapy isn’t a straightforward option. 

Dani, the founder of the non-profit organisation Menopause And Cancer, is dedicated to supporting and educating women about their choices. As the host of The Menopause And Cancer podcast, she leads discussions that garner over 20k monthly downloads, placing the podcast in the top 1.5% worldwide. 

"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." 

Based on her successful Empowered Menopause programs, Dani has developed the UK’s first menopause program for young women going through cancer in collaboration with Trekstock, a charity supporting young adults in their 20's and 30's affected by cancer. This has most recently won the "Campaigning for Change" award at the Markel 3rd Sector Care awards 2023. 

"Menopause is not a THIS is THAT approach. We need to look at evidence based facts, make this available to all women and then take into account that each woman is different, needing a bespoke action plan”. 

Dani is an impactful speaker whose presentations blend her professional expertise with her deeply personal journey through breast cancer diagnosis at 33 and subsequent early-onset menopause. Her talks are a mix of compassion and knowledge, leaving audiences infused with newfound hope and energy. 

As a sought-after guest on podcasts, her insights have resonated widely. She's been featured in national press, contributing to various articles in magazines and newspapers. Notably, she appeared on ITV's This Morning, sharing her compelling story.
