Well done to the 19 teams who took part in the 8 Week Well-being Challenge from January this year. 101 colleagues signed up for the challenge and kept Clare and Wendy in HR up to date on their progress.

Congratulations to everyone who completed the challenge and a very special well done to Teresa, Kayleigh, Sarah, Sharron, Mimi, Albana, Elaine and Jeanette whose team ‘Team Heart and Sole’ won! This fabulous team committed to a whopping 11 pledges, which included losing weight, drinking more water, yoga, latino dancing, meeting new people and more.

The team members have reported a number of inspiring lifestyle changes and benefits from taking part in the wellbeing challenge. One has started trampolining, another has joined the local school PTA and has enjoyed meeting new people and getting involved in new initiatives. Others reported feeling much “better, fitter and healthier”. Most of all the team felt a real sense of achievement in supporting each other and sharing the experience.

To top it all off, the prize of £200 will be split in donations to the British Heart foundation and the Meningitis Research Foundation. An amazing effort all round.
