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.”

Your Comfort Zone Is Not Your Friend
Adrienne’s mantra ‘your comfort zone is not your friend’ drives her constantly to try new things and to help others overcome their barriers so they can be their biggest, best, boldest selves.
Now an executive coach, board advisor and consultant, Adrienne’s thriving career to date, has seen her go from agency temp to chief executive and beyond.
She’s led the changes at a local authority, established and modernised the Disclosure & Barring Service and most recently she’s transformed the Office for Nuclear Regulation into a multiple-award winning organisation.
As Patron of Women in Nuclear UK, Adrienne has spoken worldwide inspiring the sector to improve its recruitment, retention and promotion of women. It is in recognition of her impact on inclusion, and the nuclear sector, she was awarded her CBE.
Join us, be inspired by Adrienne
