Keep your team in the wellbeing loop!

Prioritising the wellbeing of your team is not just a good practice; it’s essential for creating a healthy workplace culture. If your organisation has already implemented stress management strategies, mental health first aiders, mental health support and resources, it’s time to share this vital information! 🤫

Many organisations invest in these initiatives, but surprisingly, a significant number fail to communicate their existence effectively. It's crucial that every team member knows what resources are available to them and how to access them. 🗣

Consider leveraging a variety of communication channels to ensure your message reaches everyone. Here are some effective strategies:

• Email Newsletters: Regular updates can inform staff about available resources and upcoming mental health initiatives.
• Visual Reminders: Posters and infographics on staff boards can serve as constant reminders of the support available.
• Regular Meetings: Incorporate discussions about mental health into team meetings to normalise the conversation and encourage openness.
• Text Message Reminders: Quick texts can prompt team members to utilise resources when they need them most.
• Awareness Sessions: Hosting workshops or lunch-and-learns can foster understanding and provide valuable information about mental health support.

By actively promoting these resources, you're not just addressing stress and mental health concerns; you're cultivating a culture of support, empathy, and understanding within your organisation. 💪
