3. Virtual Well-Being at the top of Your New Year Event Agenda

Wednesday 6 January 2021

With the news of another 6-8 weeks of national lockdown, the health and well-being of employees across the retail, media and wider service sectors returns to sharp focus as businesses must strive to maintain morale, team spirit and the mental health of their fragmented teams.

The majority of Venue Search London’s clients are still working from home and with the new lockdowns rules this is a reality for most over the next two months. This becomes a real challenge, coming on top of what has already been such a tough year for many of us. News of the vaccines is a very much welcomed boost, but this will not take away the real and present issues surrounding mental health and well-being.

Venue Search London have been working closely with our creative events team at Story, delivering several successful and engaging wellness based events for our  clients in the last few months of 2020. Taking time source and work alongside some great supplier partners to create bespoke event programmes.

Virtual activities included live sessions of yoga, mindfulness, resilience and self-care, together with comedy, escape rooms and “making” activities designed to bring teams together in our new physically distanced world.

For a recent event for our client Thoughtworks, Story created a virtual session on Mental Wealth; what it is, how to manage stress and most crucially how to boost your happiness which was received with overwhelming positivity because each participant felt valued and listened to throughout.

In addition to content creation (which could include use of our in-house Story Studio in Central London), we have our very own online registration software and are able to recommend and manage the best virtual platform to maximise  your audience’s retention and engagement.

Finally, our Artisan Gifting team is on hand to create and deliver inspiring  gift boxes packed with locally produced wellness products and ingredients for a wide range of “making” sessions.

So, whether this is designed to deliver a stand-alone “Wellness Week” or form part of a new-year Kick-start Conference, Venue Search London are ready, willing and able to help your teams through the dark winter months ahead.
