Helping support your team
Supporting the fantastic work of our Health and Wellbeing Team is an ever-growing group of enthusiastic LSCft Health and Wellbeing Champions.
The Champions are colleagues, based right across the Trust, who are passionate about health and wellbeing and supporting their teams.
They care about improving your working environment, supporting inclusive engagement – to make sure everyone feels involved - and understand that working well contributes not only to your personal wellbeing, but also that of service users, patients, carers and their families too.
We’d love you to be a Health and Wellbeing Champion – find out how below!
What your Health and Wellbeing Champions do
The Health and Wellbeing Champions help by:
Encouraging colleagues to access useful health and wellbeing information and support
Raising awareness of wellbeing activities
Promoting healthy lifestyles and positive mental health
Our LSCft Health and Wellbeing Champions really know their services and colleagues best and so know what can help make a real difference to health and wellbeing where they work.
To help support them, occasional training is provided, as well as events and forums.

Promote health campaigns through creating poster displays, share our monthly Health and Wellbeing Newsletter with their teams, email colleagues with useful hints and tips, give out leaflets and update colleagues in meetings
Organise activities to support health and wellbeing in their team and where they work – things like lunchtime walks, book clubs or hobby groups
Encourage their LSCft friends and colleagues to join in with health and wellbeing initiatives and events
Act as a point of contact, role model and promote a healthy culture here at LSCft
