The free wellbeing morning gives people the chance to try out a variety of activities from breathwork to chair based yoga while taking advantage of a free health check from the NHS.

The event has been organised as part of the WorkWell project, an innovative new programme that aims to help disabled people and people with health conditions to start and stay in work.

The service is free and voluntary, and as part of the offer, participants will have access to a work and health coach. Together, they will agree realistic and reasonable next steps that can form part of a personalised support plan.

WorkWell can offer a range of support, which may include:

• A personal assessment of your needs to understand what support might work best for your circumstances.
• Personalised, goal-based plans to address your physical, mental wellbeing, and social needs to help you return to and/or thrive in work.
• Access and referral to local and community-based work and health support services.
• Support for employers to understand your needs and advice on how to provide workplace adjustments that support you (employers will only be contacted with your permission).
