Workplace Wellbeing
We can also visit workplaces, including voluntary organisations, to offer free support to staff including Wellbeing MOTs, NHS Health Checks, blood pressure checks and wellbeing talks.
Free support for your team
At the Wellbeing MOT we use body composition scales and offer free one-to-one wellbeing advice. Following on from this, employees often go on to complete one of our free courses.
The NHS Health Check is for adults aged 40 to 74. It’s designed to spot the early signs of stroke, kidney disease, heart disease, type 2 diabetes or dementia.
We can deliver free Wellbeing Talks for your workplace either face to face or online. These include our Wellbeing Service Talk about free services available, our Healthy Eating Talk, Menopause Awareness, Preparing to Stop Smoking and Reducing Alcohol intake.
Prioritise your employees
A proactive approach to the health and wellbeing of employees is key to a happier, healthier, engaged, and more productive workforce.
At a recent visit to Netsoltech in Horsham our adviser Andy was able to talk to employees about stopping smoking. One employee opted for weekly stop smoking sessions at his workplace and has now successfully quit.
