As part of Humber Business Week, we were proud to host our first Workforce Wellbeing Exchange in partnership with Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust, bringing together employers, HR professionals and business leaders to explore how we can create healthier, more supportive workplaces.
Delivered by NHS experts, the event focused on workplace wellbeing, mental health and creating healthier, more supportive workplaces. Attendees took part in three engaging, insight-led workshops covering some of the most pressing issues facing organisations today:
Think Differently: Supporting Neurodiversity at Work
Led by Clarissa Thompson, Occupational Therapist, and Eloise, Associate Practitioner (ADHD and Autism Services), this session explored practical ways to better support neurodivergent colleagues. Drawing on frontline NHS expertise, it offered valuable insights and tools to help organisations improve inclusion, engagement and retention.
How to Beat Burnout (It’s Not Just About Self-Care)
Led by Assistant Psychologist Kati Chambers, this session challenged the idea that burnout is only an individual issue. Instead, it examined the organisational factors that contribute to stress, and shared practical strategies for leaders to build healthier, more sustainable working environments.
Multigenerational Working: Shaping a Workforce Offer for Every Stage
Led by Justin Marjoram, People Experience Manager, this session explored how organisations can better support employees at every stage of life and career. It highlighted evolving workforce expectations and offered practical ideas to strengthen inclusion, retention and overall employee experience.
We hope the event gave everyone who attended some ideas to start those important wellbeing conversations in your workplace.
