How to Run an Amazing Wellbeing Event

'We had an amazing day thank you, please pass on our thanks to the whole team.'

It's great to get positive feedback from the events we run.  Last Thursday's wellbeing day was based in a particularly challenging environment for the staff who work there.  Faced with a remote location and long working hours, eating well, fitting in exercise and sleeping well were all challenges they faced.

I thought it would be useful to share how we tackled some of these challenges on the day so you can use the information yourself or pass it on to colleagues.

If your office would benefit for a wellbeing day please get in touch with us and we can help you design an event that would suit your needs.

The secret to a successful event is to be able to give staff practical and realistic advice that makes a difference quickly. Here are some examples.

Wellbeing challenge 1
Our office is so far away from anywhere that we struggle to eat well.  The closest thing is a petrol station which is where most of us tend to go for lunch or snacks
Our nutritionist was able to provide a selection of simple snacks that can be prepared at home, as well as suggesting simple meals and encouraging people to cook extra at mealtimes and bring leftovers.  We also had a fitness expert on site conducting health assessments and providing staff with key performance indicators they can use to judge the benefits of eating more healthily as they monitor these numbers in the future.

Wellbeing challenge 2
I used to like running / gardening / walking but I've got a bad knee / back / shoulder so I've had to stop
At the event we had a physiotherapist and an osteopath who were able to provide advice on the stretches, strengthening exercises and postural adjustments required to fix injuries and get people back to the exercise they enjoy.

Wellbeing challenge 3
We're all pretty busy at the moment so it can be quite hard to unwind and relax at the end of the day
Thankfully our team of massage therapists were on hand to iron out any physical tension and also demonstrate that even short breaks pay dividends over the course of a long day when it comes to maintaining energy and focus.

Get the design right at your wellbeing day and the results will be amazing for you too.
