Sprint overview
Sprint 2 — Menopause Workplace Support (Source Pack)
Public-page promise: /corporate/menopause-workplace-support.
Why second: EHRC 2024 guidance creates legal urgency. Short content,
high conversion, named in 3+ corporate pages.
Differentiated IP (must appear in every asset)
- The 5-Adjustment Quick-Card (MEM-original; most incumbents publish "awareness", not what to do on Monday morning)
- The "Notice → Offer → Document" manager script (avoids the disclosure / privacy trap)
- Lived-experience co-facilitation slot (held in run-sheet, not optional)
- The three cross-cutting lines on every cover page (SROI 1-for-1 · lived experience · board-grade reporting)

mem://constraints/no-clinical-services. - UK reg framing only: Equality Act 2010 (sex, age, disability), EHRC 2024 menopause guidance, HSE risk-assessment duty, ACAS guidance.
- One lived-experience case study per asset.
- CTA on every closing page: "Want this adapted for your sector? Book a 20-min discovery call."
- No gendered framing assumptions. "People experiencing menopause" — not all are women; trans, non-binary and intersex people may be affected.
