Implementing the Health and Well-Being Strategy for our People<br />

This objective was partially met. The last 12 months have been a successful<br />

year for our <strong>Trust</strong> with regards to developing the health and well-being of our<br />

people. In recognition of this our <strong>Trust</strong> was awarded a Gold Certificate from<br />

Sir David Nicholson and was one of only eight <strong>NHS</strong> <strong>Trust</strong>s in England to<br />

receive this award. Our health and well-being campaign has included free<br />

weekly fitness classes; monthly challenges focusing on diet and exercise;<br />

access to a free online website which provided fitness videos and a rounders<br />

and rugby tournament.<br />

The <strong>Trust</strong> provides Occupational Health services through an <strong>NHS</strong> Plus<br />

Occupational Health unit. These are available to all staff via either their<br />

manager or self referral.<br />

In addition to supporting the physical well-being of our people, the <strong>Trust</strong> also<br />

launched its mental well-being intranet pages. As part of our Health, Wellbeing<br />

and Engagement Strategy the mental well-being intranet pages offer<br />

support, information, tips, guidance, exercises, models and links to further<br />

information for enhancing mental well-being.<br />

As a result of a number of management actions and our health and well-being<br />

initiatives, our sickness and absence figures have continued to decrease and<br />

remain just above our target of 5 per cent at 5.16 per cent.<br />

year are shown in the table below:<br />

Our Communications with Our People<br />

We believe that good communications help us to engage effectively with our<br />

people. Our communications are two-way. We listen to our people and their<br />

views. We communicate with our people via a range of different media<br />

including a face-to-face monthly core brief, a weekly e-bulletin, a regular<br />
