TOWN NAMED ON MENOPAUSE FRIENDLY BIRTHDAY...

TOWN NAMED ON MENOPAUSE FRIENDLY BIRTHDAY HONOURS LIST!

Menopause & Menstruation Friendly Pioneer Honour Huddersfield Town is one of the honourees to commemorate

the Menopause Friendly Accreditation’s fourth anniversary.

The first organisation to possess both accreditations is the Club.

They are honouring the people and organisations that have gone above and beyond to set the standard as they

celebrate the fourth anniversary of the establishment of the industry-recognized Menopause Friendly Accreditation.

From early adopters and world firsts to inspirational voices and unwavering advocates, the Menopause Friendly

Birthday Honours highlight those bringing about genuine, long-lasting change. When combined, they have

revolutionised the way that menopause is supported in the workplace.

The Menopause & Menstruation Friendly Pioneer Award honouree is Huddersfield Town Football Club.

As the first company to get both Menopause Friendly and Menstruation Friendly Accreditations, the Club is

honoured to have set a significant new standard for workplace wellness.

We have been praised for our outstanding leadership in eliminating stigma, promoting cultural change, and making

sure all staff members feel appreciated and supported by acknowledging and embracing both menopause and

menstruation.

In order to demonstrate that comprehensive predictive health and support should be at the core of workplace

wellbeing, we are working to clear the path for additional businesses to follow.

Our Head of HR and EDI, Zoe Shackleton, commented:

In the birthday honours list, we are honoured to be named the Menopause and Menstruation Friendly Pioneer. We

had no clue how revolutionary receiving the Menopause Friendly Employer accreditation would be, both inside and

outside of the football world, when we became the first football club to do so three years ago.

Our top goal has always been to promote the health and well-being of our employees and to attend to their specific

needs.

“Having an open and continuous conversation about menopause and menstruation is really empowering and has

helped our colleagues get support and assistance from both internal and external sources that they might not have

otherwise been able to get.

“These accreditations are now firmly embedded in what we value, and we are proud to play a role in continuing to

raise awareness and remove longstanding stigma and taboo around these subjects.”
