Added in wording to reflect the existing UAT joiner guide, in shortened form, onto the docs site. This will be made better, but is an interim solution. Since we don't have another website suitable for this, our team has agreed with Marketing that this is the place this should live (given it is separate from the Foundation). Will try to edit the toctree so this 'pops out' in the left-hand menu.
