The ICB, in collaboration with The Wellbeing Line, are piloting a new starter wellbeing group conversation and are actively seeking volunteers in health and social care settings to help evaluate the initiative. The session is expected to last no more than 1.5 hours – no date has been set but this will likely be in March 2024.

The wellbeing conversation is designed to support all new starters in their role, providing a wellbeing check-in, a safe space for colleagues to share their wellbeing practices as well as concerns and ensuring staff know where to find helpful contact numbers/resources should they wish to.  The ambition is that at the end of the session, the new starter will have had an opportunity to talk about their wellbeing and be more aware of wellbeing support available.

Ideally, those who pilot this session will have been in post less than 3 months.

To register your new starter’s interest, please contact matt.gilby@gcpa.co.uk
