Hi @Sian Snook

Maybe the parallel sprints feature will be helpful? This feature allows you to run multiple sprints at the same time :) 

You can turn it on under Settings > Products > Parallel sprints

Kind Regards,

Hey @Sian Snook
Only one active sprint is allowed per board by default in Jira. To start multiple sprints, you need to enable the Parallel Sprints feature in Jira settings (requires admin access). Also, ensure sprints are created on project-specific boards and users have the correct sprint permissions in all linked projects. Let me know if you need help with the setup!
