Mental Health & Well Being - Our Journey continues

I wrote a while back of how I had promised to research, present and deliver a Well Being Strategy for Carlisle Support Services, well now I have reached an important milestone in that promise. I have presented my initial ideas and had approval from our Senior Management Team to deliver the first phase of initiatives. Changing a culture isn't an overnight phemonema and things need to be done in a certain order to maximise the benefit.

Over the next week I will be outlining our initiatives to show what we are doing to create a culture that better supports the well being of our key asset our people. I thought it appropriate to post these updates during mental health awareness as we have specific initiatives that are linked to improving Mental Health Awareness as well as physical well being. The two are interlinked and can positively or negatively impact upon each other so we have chosen to look at both aspects in tandem to make sure we dont exclude any good ideas to improve the well being of our colleagues.

I will outline later the first strand of our well being strategy - our staff stress survey baseline project.
