Supporting the NHS

So today myself and a family friend and colleague Hannah, spent a lot of our day at Basingstoke Hospital volunteering our their services, providing free beauty treatments, to the staff as part of the NHS health & wellbeing at work event.

Health, work and wellbeing is a cross-government initiative to protect and improve the health and wellbeing of working age people. The initiative promotes the positive links between health and work and aims to help more people with health conditions to find and stay in employment. It brings together employers, trade unions, healthcare professionals and other partners and builds on a growing evidence base that working is good for health. 

Good health is good for business and a healthy workforce is a productive one. 

Hannah and I provided quick, easy but effective treatments such as manicures, eyebrow shaping and massages - all feel good treatments. We worked in 15 minute slots ensuring as many staff members were able to take full advantage of us being there. Time slots were prebooked by Meyrem (wellbeing manager); Needless to say, we were both fully booked! 

The event today was a success, and every staff member who visited us today left with a smile on their face! I look forward to providing the same again at the next health and wellbeing event later on this month. 

Thank you Meyrem for inviting me to take part in the event, and also thank you so much for your kind donation towards my bid to raise as much money possible for my chosen charity, Beauty with a Purpose, as a thank you for my services today.
