Improving your physical and mental wellbeing can impact so many different areas of your life, both at work and at home. However, for years in the rail industry we haven’t given health and wellbeing the attention it deserves. When a workplace accident occurs, we rightly spend time challenging, questioning and learning where improvements could be made. What if we did the same for problems with our physical or mental health?

Hold your own RWL event:
It’s up to you to do whatever works best for your team. However, please see some ideas below:

  • Organise a coffee morning and watch RWL together – get each person to bring some sweet or savoury treats in!
  • Organise a lunch and learn session in between the wellbeing events and encourage open discussions.
  • Group calls, set up different groups within your company and get them talking about different topics.

"Dr Chatterjee's session last year has made a real difference to my life, and I now listen to his podcasts whilst on my walks. I've learnt A LOT from him and shared what I can with my colleagues as part of our health and wellbeing activities. Without doubt, it's helped me get through the last year at home. I feel sure I wouldn't be a mentally strong as I am without it."
