Practical session helping smaller organisations support employees experiencing menopause and build a more inclusive workplace

Many smaller organisations want to better support employees experiencing menopause but often have limited resources, time and specialist support available. This practical and interactive session is designed for organisations that may not have large HR teams or dedicated wellbeing budgets but are committed to creating a supportive and inclusive workplace.

Attendees will leave with actionable ideas, templates and resources that can be implemented quickly and cost-effectively. Through discussion, examples and practical exercises, we'll explore how to develop a menopause action plan that delivers meaningful support while remaining proportionate to the size and needs of your organisation.
