Our Services
Wellbeing Audit
We work with you to analyse where you can improve your wellbeing offering. Our team can work with you to figure out how you can enhance your culture and values by implementing wellbeing initiatives.
In the 2021 CIPD health wellbeing survey it states:
In response to this continuing backdrop of uncertainty, the survey findings identify a number
of priority actions for organisations, including the need to develop a strategic and holistic approach to people’s health, safety and wellbeing. This approach should focus on prevention as well as providing effective support pathways for people if they become unwell. Organisations need to put in place a systematic framework, with tools to assess the main physical and psychological risks to people’s health, so that they can target their activity where it’s needed.
Feedback
We can assist with analysis of pulse surveys or other continuous listening programmes to make recommendations about wellbeing initiatives.
Areas most frequently covered are flexible working, home and hybrid working arrangements, sickness absence policies and interventions and creating and maintaining group culture where working patterns are fragmented.
We also work with specialist qualitative and quantative researchers who can assist wtih targeted questions and focus groups to help with the implementation of employee wellbeing initiatives

Take Action Now
Businesses also need to take steps to ensure that their risk assessments, homeworking and health & safety policies are adjusted to take account of the risk of domestic abuse when considering the needs of home workers and those working flexibly.
Mental Health & Wellbeing
The charity Mind and other organisations dedicated to mental health issues have put mental health as a number one priority for 2021
A recent Mckinsey report states:
“Wellbeing as a skill is a daily intention that can be enhanced by elements including meditation, sleep, exercise, nutrition, community belonging, a spiritual connection, and more. Forward-thinking companies will embrace wellbeing not as a vague concept, but as an index of learnable actions and daily behavior. Like any skill, wellbeing must be practiced every day. Employers who want to build a workplace that prioritizes wellbeing will treat it like a growth priority by rolling out self-assessment exercises and measuring improvement against the skills needed to achieve wellbeing. This in turn allows employees to identify their starting points, discover their building blocks, and track their own improvement. Each of us will have a different set of practices and experiences that lead to a positive sense of wellbeing, and others that cause stress, anxiety, or discomfort. It is critical to recognize this and actively cultivate the elements that enhance one’s wellbeing.”
