Debbie Gaunt Foundation is breaking the silence around perimenopause, menopause, and women’s mental health - because these conversations matter. Every midlife woman deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported. Mental health should never be a private burden; it’s a shared responsibility. No woman should navigate this alone.

Perimenopause is often poorly understood in the community. Medical research into complications of perimenopause is also surprisingly scant.

Founder Craig Gaunt became aware of this knowledge gap after losing his wife, Debbie, to suicide in 2019. A much-loved wife, mother, friend, and colleague, Debbie became severely mentally unwell shortly before her death, an episode that has since been partially attributed to the hormonal effects of perimenopause.

To honour Debbie, the Gaunt family works to fund projects that aim to illuminate and better understand the mental health impacts of perimenopause and other conditions that affect women's mental health.

THANK YOU for contributing to our mission:
To empower women, their partners and those close to them with trusted, evidence-based information to confidently navigate perimenopause, menopause and mental health.
