Wellspace announce 12 month partnership to provide digital wellbeing services to Guys and St Thomas Charity<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Wellspace will be providing digital services for 12 months to Guy’s and St Thomas Charity as part of their staff health and wellbeing programme.<\/p>\n

\"\"Guys and St Thomas Charity is an independent urban health foundation. They work with Guy\u2019s and St Thomas\u2019 NHS Foundation Trust and others to improve health in the London boroughs of Lambeth and Southwark, and beyond.<\/p>\n

The Charity focuses on tackling complex health issues that are prevalent locally but also relevant to other urban areas across the UK and internationally.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a charity dedicated to improving people\u2019s health, Guy\u2019s and St Thomas\u2019 Charity believes in a proactive approach to supporting the health and wellbeing of our own team.\u00a0 This is in recognition of both the benefit for individuals\u2019 health and the organisation through enhanced motivation and productivity.\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

As part of our corporate response to Covid-19, we wanted to strengthen our wellbeing programme, particularly around mental health.\u00a0 The Wellspace platform offered what we were looking for in terms of providing a range of tools and resources for individuals which connects into our Employee Assistance Programme.\u00a0 Given the significant impact of the pandemic on our lives and ways of working, it also provides a way for us to monitor, at an organisational level, how everyone is doing.\u00a0 This provides insights that will help us adjust and evolve our programme and ways of working in response to the changing external context.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Catherine Cullen, Director of Communications and Engagement, Guy\u2019s and St Thomas\u2019 Charity<\/p>\n

It is a fact that happy, safe and healthy employees are better engaged, more productive and have fewer absences. This helps grow the bottom line, retain the brightest sparks, and reward staff with the best gift of all; health.<\/p>\n

The Wellspace corporate wellness solution works with Guys and St Thomas Charity\u2019 existing policies and activities to bring their best team to work.<\/p>\n

Wellspace is a fully comprehensive wellbeing provider and is on a mission to improve mental and physical health and wellbeing by using cutting edge intelligent technologies, real time reporting, data based clinical workshops and seminars and a clear evidence of success and ROI.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt Wellspace we are thrilled and excited to be working with Guys and St Thomas Charity. The Wellspace solution is well positioned to support the staff with the overall health and wellbeing.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
