Northumberland Wildlife Trust has won an award for it's work to improve employee health and wellbeing.
The trust has been given the Silver Better Health at Work Award.
A free programme for employers in the North East and Cumbria, the award scheme is aimed at rewarding organisations that improve workplace health through structured initiatives.
There are six levels in total, each with specific campaigns that organisations must fulfil to advance.
The silver award required five campaigns: EDI, healthy eating, mental health, physical activity, and a sustainable living week.
The wildlife charity’s staff participated in a range of activities over two years.
These included a hydration challenge, sharing healthy food and recipes, Fruity Friday, outdoor yoga sessions, 5k runs, biking and busing to work, energy-efficient and 'neurodivergent' lunches, and EDI quizzes.
With the gold award in their sights, staff are now preparing for a series of five-week campaigns.
The charity says these campaigns will assist in the writing of a three-year wellbeing strategy for the trust and take advantage of free health checks.
The Better Health at Work Award is a free initiative for employers across the North East and Cumbria, aiming to improve workplace health through various campaigns.
