Menopause Support Monmouthshire

Menopause Support Monmouthshire

Reframing the Pause as Possibility

We knew instantly that we wanted to support Menopause Support Monmouthshire (MSM) through our latest Social Value project. Many menopause-focused brands lean into soft pinks, muted tones, and a narrative of loss — but both OSP and our client were keen for this not to be the story for MSM!

Our brief

To create a visual identity and strapline that celebrates menopause as a phase of empowerment and renewal — a moment to pause, reflect, and rediscover yourself.

The Big Idea

We developed a strapline that paved the way for the rest of the identity:
 

“In every pause lies new possibility.”

Menopause isn’t an ending — it’s a beginning.
MSM encourages women to stop, reflect, and embrace what comes next.

The Colours

The palette became the emotional backbone of the brand:
  • Hot Pink — a nod to the heat of hot flashes, but also boldness, sensuality, and unapologetic femininity.
  • Plum — deep and grounding, a space for reflection, calm and emotional depth.
  • Blush — gentle and nurturing, representing compassion and care.
  • Carrot Orange — Bright, joyful, and full of life — the spark that speaks to energy and possibility.
Together, they tell a story that feels feminine but not stereotypical, vibrant yet professional, full of optimism and heart.

The Feel

We wanted the brand to be human, supportive, and uplifting — reflecting movement and positivity, rather than chaos or loss.
 

“I am completely thrilled and overwhelmed with the rebranding — it gives such a positive and impactful shift in communication. It feels fresh, optimistic, and relatable — modern yet warm and empathetic.”

Before working with us, MSM had no brand identity and an off-the-shelf website that felt generic and lacked engagement. The challenge was to build a brand that inspired participation and represented the bold mission of supporting women through community outreach, private client care, and corporate training.
 

“Words can’t thank you enough — I am just totally in love with my brand. It’s incredibly inspirational, on point, and way, way ahead of the competition.”

 
We loved bringing this vision to life — bright, empowering, and full of possibility. Menopause Support Monmouthshire is proof that sometimes, a pause isn’t about stopping…it’s about beginning again.
