MAKING A DIFFERENCE AT MAD WORLD
We were delighted to be in attendance at this year’s ‘MAD World Summit’, enjoying talking to a targeted audience of HR professionals via a stand presence and by hosting a workshop.
The Mad World mission in the content director’s words is ‘to accelerate the shift from stigma to solutions by ensuring every employer – large, medium and small – has the insights, inspiration and contacts they need to make a difference to workplace culture, mental health and wellbeing.’
At our workshop, which was hosted by Tracey Paxton from The Employee Resilience Company and Beth Samson, Organisational Development and People Lead from Investors In People, we shared insights on the current state of the workplace. We also provided guidance and support on how to best manage challenges like hybrid working and engaging people managers to champion mental health support, whilst ensuring their own mental health is not impacted.
Additionally, one lucky workshop attendee won a fully-funded Manager’s Mental Wellbeing Training programme for up to 25 of their employees. Get in touch to find out more about other programmes available through our wide-ranging Mental Health Support Training & Consultancy services.
A SPOTLIGHT ON DIGITAL HEALTH
The pandemic brought home to every business the importance of supporting a healthy workforce and also highlighted the value of digital health services such as online GPs, employee assistance programme and wellbeing apps.
We have partnered with the Reward & Employee Benefits Association (REBA), the professional networking community for reward and benefits practitioners, to produce a Digital Health guide.
This highly topical content explores some of the latest digital health ideas, as well as the ways in which employers can make sure that employees benefit from them today, no matter when or where they choose to work.
‘DIGITAL HEALTH – MEETING THE WELLBEING NEEDS OF A FLEXIBLE WORKFORCE’ is available to download below or at REBA.

Guardian Employee Wellbeing Campaign
We’re excited to be involved with the Employee Wellbeing campaign, launched in the Guardian and online in March 2022.
So pleased to be one of the expert voices alongside Mind and REBA talking about how a focus on the health and wellbeing needs of employees can help prevent stress and create positive working environments.
The Big Return: The post-COVID return to work and the hidden costs of the pandemic
We surveyed 2,000 of the UK’s working population who have worked from home during the pandemic to understand the impact of COVID on employees.
The insight is designed to be a point of departure for the development of clear strategies and tactics to support employees, not only over the coming months, but also the coming years, as we come out of a life-changing pandemic and begin to return to normal.
Key findings:
“The location, look and feel of workplaces and work patterns will continue to evolve far beyond these pandemic years, but the constant needs to be that employers put their workforce’s health and wellbeing centre stage.”
