Wellbeing exhibition

Open from 14 January until 1 February 2019 in Atrium Gallery

Taking lunch breaks away from desks, leaving at a reasonable time and making the most of opportunities at and around LSE are simple things, but they're making a big difference

Wellbeing can mean different things to different people, from how we're feeling at a certain time to the changes we want to make to be happier and healthier.

Explore the exhibition to discover the small, everyday actions we can all take to boost our wellbeing.

Take some time away from your work to write a mind apple to hang up on our wellbeing tree, and attend one of our wellbeing events below:
