Throughout May, colleagues across The Phoenix Group came together to support Mental Health Awareness Week and National Walking Month through our new “Walk & Talk” wellbeing initiative.
Launched by our Wellbeing Champions, the sessions encouraged employees to step away from their desks, enjoy some fresh air, and take time to reset during the working day. The initiative began with a group walk to our local park, creating an opportunity for colleagues to connect, decompress, and prioritise their wellbeing together.
Following the positive response, Walk & Talk sessions continued every Wednesday throughout May, helping to promote the importance of movement, conversation, and taking regular breaks from screens during the busy working week.
The initiative formed part of our wider focus on supporting employee wellbeing and encouraging open conversations around mental health in the workplace.
A huge thank you to our Wellbeing Champions for organising and leading such a positive initiative, and to everyone who took part throughout the month.
