This week, we held a Mental Health and Wellbeing Week, sharing practical ideas, resources and opportunities to support our teamβs wellbeing, both in and outside of work.
The week focused on the 5 Ways of Wellbeing:
π€ Connect β highlighting the importance of staying connected with colleagues, friends and family, and making time for the people around us.
π Take Notice β sharing practical tips and resources around sleep, mindfulness, managing stress and taking a moment to check in with ourselves.
π Keep Learning β we welcomed Lorraine from Westmorland and Furness Libraries to Oxley, giving employees the opportunity to sign up for library membership, discover the resources available and take away some free βquick readsβ.
π Give β highlighting the value of small acts of kindness, supporting our local communities, volunteering opportunities and the role of school governors.
π Get Active β encouraging employees to move more throughout the day and make the most of the health and fitness benefits available to them. Free fruit was available for the whole team!
A big thank you to everyone who took part and helped make the week a success!
We hope the week has given the team some useful ideas and resources to support their wellbeing, reminding us that small, practical steps can make a difference.
