Mental Health Awareness Week 2025, observed from 12th to 18th May, emphasises the theme of community, highlighting its pivotal role in nurturing mental wellbeing. The Mental Health Foundation underscores that being part of a supportive community can enhance happiness, provide a sense of belonging, and offer protection against mental health challenges.

At Glo, we recognise that the workplace is a significant community where individuals spend a substantial portion of their lives. Our mission is to assist organisations in cultivating healthier, more connected work environments through comprehensive workplace wellbeing services.

Building Stronger Workplace Communities

A thriving workplace community is characterised by connection, support, and shared purpose. At Glo, our tailored wellbeing programs are designed to foster these elements, enhancing employee engagement and overall mental health.

Our services include:

• Onsite Office Massage: Quick, stress-relieving treatments that alleviate tension and promote relaxation.

• Wellbeing Workshops: Interactive sessions on mindfulness, nutrition, and life coaching to empower employees with practical tools for mental resilience.

• Fitness and Movement Classes: Group activities like yoga, pilates, and tai chi that encourage physical health and team bonding.

• Wellness Retreats: Immersive experiences combining relaxation, movement, and nourishment to rejuvenate teams.

These initiatives are not only beneficial for individual health but also contribute to a more cohesive and supportive workplace culture.

The Business Case for Workplace Wellbeing

Investing in employee wellbeing yields significant returns. According to the Mental Health Foundation, poor mental health costs UK employers up to £45 billion annually. However, for every £1 invested in mental health interventions, there's an average return of £5.

By integrating Glo's services into your workplace, you not only support your teams' mental health but also enhance productivity, reduce absenteeism, and foster a positive work environment.
