The Wellbeing Hour is for anybody who’s responsible for the wellbeing of colleagues or has an interest in workplace mental health. We interview guest speakers who are experts in their field. We give you the opportunity to hear nuggets of wisdom, ask questions and learn from peers. It’s free, lasts an hour, and on Zoom.
“Inspiring, thought provoking, and full of practical tips.”
“A tonne of best practice from people at the sharp end.”
Join us for what promises to be a fascinating and maybe controversial discussion with experts in the field.
