Any questions?

Yes, absolutely. If you have an idea for a local initiative - say, an away day for your team which focuses on wellbeing or a fruit drop for your department – take a look at the Good Ideas Fund. The Fund allows areas of the School to bid for a set amount of financial support to make an initiative happen.

If you have an idea for a School-wide initiative, please get in touch with us at Staffwellbeing@lse.ac.uk and we’ll see how we can help. We’re also open to new recommendations for new trainers and instructors.

Most of the activities that you'll find in this year's Wellbeing Programme are free of charge to School staff - this is all part of trying to make wellbeing activities as open and inclusive as possible. A handful of regular activities do ask for a small payment, and this will be made clear in the details for how to book.

Yes, absolutely - please do let the instructor know before the activity starts if you're carrying an injury or if there's anything else which it would be helpful for them to be aware of. 

The Wellbeing Programme contains a wide range of wellbeing activities that have been arranged at different times (and on different days) so that as many staff as possible have the opportunity to take part. We've also scheduled many of the lunchtime activities to finish within 45 minutes so that you also have the time to fit in some lunch. At the same time, we appreciate that it isn't always easy to take time out of the day for something which isn't (strictly speaking) part of your job. 

As you'd expect, it's very important to come to an agreement with your line manager if any of the activities overlap with your normal working hours. 

Do let us know at Staffwellbeing@lse.ac.uk if you find yourself unable to attend one of the regular activities - where possible, we will do our best to arrange an alternative date/time in future which is more convenient. 

Any personal details that are collected to enable you to take part in a wellbeing activity will be shared strictly in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which came into force in 2018. This means that personal details will only be shared on a strictly need to know basis - for example, the names of participants in a particular activity may be shared with the trainer or instructor so that they can monitor attendance. You may also be occasionally asked to provide feedback following a particular activity or event (e.g. via a Qualtrics survey) - such feedback is entirely optional and any responses provided will be kept anonymous as far as is reasonably possible.
