2020-10-16 10:00 - 13:00 | Online Event
Three amazing speakers talking to employers and employees about staying well at work as the pandemic continues to affect the economy.

About this Event

Sadly due to the pandemic we had to cancel our popular 2020 Work and Wellbeing Day with our exhibition hall, speaker hall and workshops but, never defeated, we have worked with three amazing speakers who would have spoken on the day and they are now taking their presentations online. Part of our drive to work with employers and this is open to men and women. Drop by and hear from the experts then engage with the Q&A. Meeting will start at 10.00am to allow time to sort out any technical gremlins for attendees.
As I’m sure you realise all charities are finding fundraising impossible so although this event is free we would gladly welcome any donation you may choose to make. This event is being supported by Freedom Leisure.
10.15-10.45 Victoria Regan – Rix & Kay Solicitor LLPLooking after Employee Mental Health & Wellbeing in the “new normal”
As businesses get back up and running, employers now need to consider what the “new normal” will look like for their business and workforce. Whilst some employees may now be back in the workplace, others maybe working from home or remain on furlough leave. All of whom will have been affected differently by Covid-19 and will all require different periods of time to adjust to the “new normal”. It is important for Employers to mindful of the physical and psychological impact that Covid-19 has had upon its employees and focus on the health, safety and wellbeing of its employees.
Victoria shall be considering the impact this pandemic has had upon employee health and wellbeing and the steps that can be taken to support the health, safety and wellbeing of the workforce.
10.45-11.15 Christina Ewbank, Chief Executive, Eastbourne Unltd
Working in Uncertainty
With the virus and Brexit looming over us it is very important to protect your mental health, be flexible and resilient. Easier said than done, Christina will explore ways to help you maintain control over your destiny, despite everything happening nationally and globally.
11.15-11.45 Nicola McCarthy
Voices from the frontline
How can employers recognise and support employees wo are under stress and may be suffering from a breakdown? Why are employees reluctant to ‘open up’ to their line managers? Working as a Peer Support Coach with The Wellbeing Performance Company in Eastbourne, Nicola can give personal insights into the world of those who suffer with mental health issues and give employers valuable advice.

Practical Ways to help you be with others again
2020-08-19 10:30 - 12:00 | Zoom, Eastbourne, East Sussex, GB - United Kingdom, BN21 4RJ
As we are increasingly expected to return to normal life, many of us are anxious of going out, mixing and talking with other people, and of what to do should others make us feel unsafe or uncomfortable.
In this practical workshop, we will address some of the real questions and concerns that you have shared with WayfinderWoman. For example,
How do I stop feeling anxious of mixing with people again?
What do I do if someone comes too close without a mask?
How do I say what I want to without being muddled?
Together and in small groups, we will form a safe and supportive environment to explore ways to overcome these and other concerns: Of course if you wish to consider your concerns in private, that is also OK.
By the end, you will have developed your own plan of practical steps to help you feel more confident and safe about going out into the world again.
Run by Dr Caroline Marlow, Director of L&M Consulting Ltd.
Please log in a few minutes before 10.30am to the zoom session.

Starting to reconnect with the real world
2020-08-06 14:30 - 15:00 | Zoom, Eastbourne, East Sussex, GB - United Kingdom, BN21 4RJ
Over the last few months we have all had to learn a new way to be.
We have all been staying home and staying safe as much as we can.
As things change and we start to re-engage with the world in reality and not just virtually it is natural to be cautious.
In this workshop you will get a chance to share your concerns and discover that others feel the same.
Melody Cheal will facilitate the discussion both as a main group and in smaller groups to make sure everyone can be heard.
Having identified the most common concerns Melody will help you create an action plan to re-connect and stay safe as you return to more interaction with others face to face.
Run by Melody Cheal MSc Psychology, NLP Master Trainer
