This is National Work Life Week which is an opportunity for both employers and employees to focus on wellbeing at work and work-life balance.

Employers can use the week to provide activities for staff, and to showcase their flexible working policies and practices.

If you are inspired after coming up with ideas and want to keep that wellbeing factor going for longer than the week then, if you are a small or medium-sized enterprise, you can apply to Living Well Sefton for a £500 Workplace Wellbeing Grant.

The grant money can go towards: staff costs, covering sessional work such as yoga; volunteer costs; equipment such as bike racks to encourage active travel to work; training courses with a wellbeing focus and events to support the wellbeing of staff.

It can also be used to refurbish facilities which contribute to the health and wellbeing of staff, for example decorating a break room or buying a table and chairs to encourage people to eat lunch away from their desks.

For an application form or to find out more information, contact Living Well Sefton on 0300 323 0181 or email: workplacegrants@seftoncvs.org.uk
