Winter Mind-Fit Workforce networking event

20 Dec 2024

Winter edition of the Mind-Fit Workforce networking event, to support business leaders in promoting mental health in the workplace

Raising Health, the registered charity for Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust, invites business professionals to join the upcoming Mind-Fit Workforce networking session on Monday, 20 January 2025, from 3:30pm to 4:30pm. Following the successful in-person launch at Leicester Business Festival 2024, this virtual event will bring together leaders, wellbeing champions, and professionals dedicated to improving mental health in the workplace.

This event provides a unique opportunity for business leaders, wellness advocates, and professionals from both the private and public sectors across Leicester, Leicestershire, and Rutland to connect, share insights, and explore strategies to support a healthier, more resilient workforce. Attendees will benefit from the information shared by LPT’s Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist about Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). It will be a useful session suggesting how you can support yourself and your workforce though winter using simple CBT based interventions, with time for questions and discussion.

Magda Korytkowska, fundraising manager for Raising Health, said: “Mind-Fit Workforce is our way of giving back to the local business community. We rely on support from individuals and companies to be able to fund initiatives at Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust which are going above and beyond what the NHS core funding could cover. That also means supporting our front-line colleagues and their wellbeing.

“LPT is an expert in mental health and community support, so we are joining the forces to offer a unique collaboration. Together we can address the need of prevention before people reach their crisis point, meaning supporting businesses with prioritising their most valuable asset—a healthy, mind-fit workforce.
