  • Spiritual Wellbeing Sessions 2020

    As part of the recent launch of our Health & Wellbeing Policy, BCLM’s Spiritual Wellbeing Champions, Michelle Darby and Steve Grainger, are holding bi-weekly spiritual wellbeing sessions on Thursdays after work from 4pm – 5pm.

    We invite you to use these sessions as an opportunity to speak openly with colleagues about any struggles you may currently be facing, no matter how big or small. We should all feel we can open up without fear of judgement or ridicule.

    Come and drop in, any time between 4pm – 5pm:

    09 January 2020 – Rooms 2/3

    23 January 2020 – Rooms 2/3

    06 February 2020 – Rooms 2/3

    20 February 2020 – Rooms 2/3

    05 March 2020 – Guide Hut

    19 March 2020 – Doo’s

    We hope these sessions will offer time for reflection after a busy day and encourage supportive relationships between colleagues.

    Further dates will be added later in the year as we approach summer opening hours.

    If you have any questions, please speak to either of our Spiritual Wellbeing Champions, Michelle or Steve, or Ricki in the People & Culture team.
