Here are a sample of wellbeing events we have worked on since our launch in 2017.
mental wellbeing network launch, santander uk
One of our proudest moments in our short history was when we were asked to launch the Santander Employee Mental Wellbeing Network at their UK Headquarters in Triton Square, London.
Dr Sheri Jacobson presented a talk on How Best to Look After Yourself to an audience from across the business.
We looked at the most common concerns we face when it comes to mental health, we also went through some practical exercises to help improve our mental wellbeing (mindfulness and gratitude) and we emphasised that self-improvement strategies are unique and to that effect we helped attendees to create their own wellbeing toolkit and resources to lean on.
The launch was a success and as a result we have been working with Santander across several sites in the UK ever since.
British fashion council, london,
We were invited down to Somerset House to participate in the 'Are You Employment Ready?' event, organised for third year B.A Design Students. Part of the brief was to educate them on good nutrition and how to eat for a high energy day, without falling into the trap of over indulging on sugar and caffeine as many students often do. Inset is Lily Soutter, Nutritionist, providing tips on affordable healthy snacks.
british fashion council, london
The Wellness Movement were present at the Annual Fashion Industry Update Event, held at the Ace Hotel, Shoreditch.
We were asked to provide a Mindfulness Pop-Up for the duration of the lunch break for the delegates. Inset is our Founder Sha Hussain with Alex Bunting (Education Co-ordinator, BFC) and Sarah Curtis (Psychotherapist and Counsellor, Move You Mind Therapy), who assisted at the event.
Mullen Lowe London, life art
Award Winning Artist 'Martin Morris', took a class of media professionals through their paces with a creative led Life Art Class. Martin has a knack of getting the best out of his pupils, bringing out creativity which may have lain dormant for years inside individuals. He gives permission to fail, and in turn sees his pupils thrive under his tutelage.

WAVEMAKER UK - LAUGHTER WORKSHOP
Corporate Laughter Workshop at media and technology agency Wavemaker UK.
A great workshop to promote healthier working relationships and team bonding.
Laughter decreases the stress hormone and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving resistance to disease.
Laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good chemicals.
Endorphins promote an overall sense of wellbeing and can even temporarily relieve pain.

ROYAL PARKS HALF - CORPORATE RUN & YOGA
Royal Parks Half in association Royal Bank of Canada and Lulu Lemon invited The Wellness Movement to facilitate a takeover at their store in Spitalfields, London.
We spoke to 20+ professionals from the corporate sector about wellbeing at work, who were training for the Royal Parks Half Marathon and took them on a 5K training run around a scenic city route and then back to the store for a yoga for runners session, followed by a healthy meal and refreshments.
