Well-being Wednesdays
Southwark Schools Human Resources is launching a series of well-being sessions for managers and staff in schools which will take place on a Wednesday. We have partnered with Mindapples, who work with Southwark Council, to deliver these sessions for school based staff, to support mental health and well-being.
About Mindapples:
Mindapples is a specialist training and campaigning organisation that uses proven insights from neuroscience and psychology to teach people how to look after their minds and improve their mental wellbeing, resilience and performance.
Our experienced trainers share practical insights about how our minds work and encourage people to apply these insights to their life and work. Delivered in engaging masterclasses, we cover essential skills from resilience to creativity, wellbeing to collaboration.
Our programmes have been rigorously tested in the toughest environments and have performed well in independent controlled trials. We work with many of the biggest names in global business, including top banks, NewsCorp, Tesco, L’Oreal, Balfour Beatty, Lend Lease, Gowling, the Crown Estate and the Wellcome Trust.
We are a social business, and our profits help fund our charitable campaign to encourage and support people to look after their minds all over the UK. Our charity partners include the University of York and Kings Health Partners.
Delivered in bite-sized chunks for busy people, and backed-up with innovative engagement tools, this is a fresh approach to help people work smarter, feel better, and stay healthy and resilient in high-pressure environments.
