It’s Leeds Wellbeing Week

With the arrival of Spring, it’s a good time to try new things. Leeds Wellbeing Week and Mind IT may well have some good opportunities for you to do just that!

We picked a few of the events taking place from 21 March, organised by people who understand the challenges of the workplace.

21 March from 4.30 – 5.30. Join a BarreCORE class. Barre is a high intensity, low impact, full body exercise for all abilities. Leave feeling fabulous.

An after-work event filled with positivity, connections, and top tips about wellbeing at work! Join an evening filled with positive vibes and healthy food and drinks. There’s a series of workshops and practical exercises where you’ll collect some great tips and material to promote wellbeing and nurture your happy self at work. You’ll leave smiling and set for the rest of the week.
