What is the Tasmanian Menopause Summit?

The Tasmanian Menopause Summit is the first event of its kind in Tasmania. This is the second year of the Summit. It is a half-day gathering designed to raise awareness, break the silence, and normalise the conversation around perimenopause and menopause. Through keynote presentations, expert panels, networking, and an exhibitor showcase, the summit will shine a light on the physical, emotional, and social changes of perimenopause and menopause. It is a movement to empower women, amplify voices, and transform the way our community and workplaces view this life stage.

Who is behind the Summit?

The Summit is the brainchild of Dr Zelinda Sherlock. She is the founder of the Tasmanian Menopause Summit, the CEO of Sherlock & Dutta Consulting, the Deputy Lord Mayor of the City of Hobart and a respected advocate for meaningful change. Experiencing perimenopause herself, Zelinda recognised the urgent need to bring menopause out of the shadows and into the public spotlight. Her vision was to create a landmark empowering event where women could connect, learn and be heard.

To bring her vision of the Summit to life, Dr Sherlock collaborated with Husna Pasha, a nationally recognised keynote speaker, occupational therapist, and founder of The Happychondriac Society. Husna’s reputation for breaking stigma with warmth, humour, and authenticity made her the perfect partner to co-create a space where difficult conversations become empowering and inclusive.

Together, Zelinda and Husna are shaping not just an event, but a movement, one that will redefine how Tasmania approaches menopause.

In 2026, the Summit also welcomes two new members to the Organising Committee, Mel Knuckey and Gwen Henebery. Two strong and compassionate women striving to enhance a Summit that delivers care, accessibility and connection.

Why this event matters

Peri menopause and menopause impacts not just health, but also women’s participation in the workforce, financial security, and well-being. Yet, it remains largely under-discussed. The Summit is about sparking open dialogue, providing evidence-based insights, and building a supportive community. It’s an opportunity for Tasmania to lead the way in addressing an issue that affects every woman, directly or indirectly.

Our Major Sponsors

The Tasmanian Menopause Summit is proud to be backed by three powerhouse sponsors who each bring unique strengths and commitment to this groundbreaking movement.

Sherlock & Dutta Consulting

Founded by Dr Zelinda Sherlock, Sherlock & Dutta Consulting is a leader in driving social cohesion, education, and meaningful change across Tasmania. As the founder and visionary behind the Summit, Zelinda ensures that the event is rooted in purpose, evidence, and impact.

Crowne Plaza Hobart

A world-class venue in the heart of Hobart, Crowne Plaza is more than just a host, it is a partner in creating a professional, welcoming, and supportive space for women and communities to gather, connect, and thrive. We are delighted to be partnering with Encore Event Technologies APAC who will be supporting us in delivering the Summit.

The Happychondriac Society

Founded by Husna Pasha, The Happychondriac Society blends authenticity, humour, and innovation to transform the way we talk about mental health and wellbeing. As a bronze sponsor, it ensures the summit carries warmth, creativity, and an inclusive voice that empowers women at every stage of life.

Ticketing

To ensure the summit remains accessible while also covering essential event costs (venue hire, technology, catering, and livestream services), we are proposing the following tiered ticket pricing structure:

Early Bird Ticket – $39

A discounted rate to encourage early registrations and assist with upfront event planning. This price will be available for a limited time only and rewards those who secure their place early.

General Admission – $49

Our standard ticket price for in-person attendance at the 4-hour summit. This fee contributes toward venue costs, grazing platters, event resources, and speaker expenses while still aiming to remain affordable for the community.

Group Booking – $441 (Buy 9, Get 1 Free)

To encourage group participation and shared learning, we are offering a table/group rate. When 10 tickets are booked together, the cost is equivalent to paying for 9 tickets — effectively one free spot.

This is ideal for workplaces, friendship groups, health services, or community organisations wishing to attend together.

Livestream Access – $15

To ensure accessibility for women and supporters across Tasmania (and beyond), we will offer a full livestream option.

Online attendees will receive access to the entire 4-hour summit in real time, allowing those in rural/remote areas, with mobility barriers, or time constraints to still benefit from the event.

Community Support / Donation Option

In alignment with the summit’s values of inclusion and equity, we will also include an optional donation section at checkout.

This will allow attendees, sponsors, and community members to contribute financially toward supporting tickets for those who may not otherwise be able to afford to attend.

Funds raised through donations could be used to:

* Provide sponsored tickets for low-income women

* Support regional/rural participants

* Enable carers or support people to attend

* Increase overall accessibility and inclusion

This “Pay It Forward” approach reflects the community spirit of the summit and ensures cost is not a barrier to accessing vital menopause education and support.
