Insight Endometriosis

Insight Endometriosis (formerly known as Endometriosis Waikato) is a community organisation empowering women and teenage girls affected by this significant condition. We provide community support, information and education, and raise awareness in the wider community.
While endometriosis is very common, it can be an isolating illness. Many women find that becoming informed and seeking family and community support can be valuable to help manage the condition and being assertive when seeking treatment.
As a community organisation we receive no government funding and rely on grants, donations and of course volunteers! Wherever possible services are provided free of charge. We are registered with the Charities Commission (Reg No CC10906)
Please see our informative website www.insightendometriosis.org.nz for information about endometriosis and the services we provide in the community, including:
• Monthly evening meetings
• A structured education programme
• Midweek and Saturday coffee groups in Hamilton
• Support groups in Morrinsville, Te Aroha, Cambridge, Te Awamutu and setting up elsewhere
• Support and information by phone and email
• Appointments with our Educator
• Awareness week (second week of March), including our Purple Walk for Awareness)
• An awareness programme entitled "EndoWhat?! What everyone needs to know about endometriosis" available to community organisations and workplaces
• Bimonthly awareness posters
• Monthly newsletter
