Become a wellbeing ambassador

Focusing on our wellbeing each day is important. Royal Mail’s wellbeing programme is supported by our locally based ambassadors who raise awareness and promote resources to improve the wellbeing culture in our workplaces.

A face-to-face event at our Midlands Super Hub in January was a great opportunity for the wellbeing ambassadors to focus on our priorities for the year. These include Help@Hand – a new confidential service which includes remote GP services and mental health support – and our BHF charity partnership.

Now, we need more wellbeing ambassadors to join our community. We’ve simplified the registration process to make it easy to sign up.

Once you join, you’ll receive everything you need to help get you started. You’ll also be part of the wider wellbeing community where you can share hints, tips and best practice.

This is a voluntary position that will run alongside your current role. Before signing up you must get approval from your line manager. This is a great opportunity for you to make a significant difference for you, your colleagues and those around you.

Lifesaving partnership

Having lost my dad to heart disease, I found the feature about our new Charity Partner, the British Heart Foundation, particularly poignant. It shows how much of an impact we can have.

I didn’t realise the rich history behind the publication I have enjoyed receiving through my letterbox for the last 40 years.
