Hello and welcome to the Wellbeing section of our HASSRA intranet site aimed at providing you with information, help and ideas.
Myself and the HASSRA regional teams have been working alongside the DWP Health Safety and Wellbeing team and RightCorecare as a key delivery partner of the ongoing Live Well Work Well initiative. | |
Many of you will already have been heavily involved in the roll out and I am constantly being contacted by members and officials of local clubs who are engaging with the Wellbeing theme and playing a leading role in the action planning that is going on to help improve worklife balance and create healthier lifestyles for our members. | ||

How can HASSRA HELP? |
||
HASSRA is very much at the heart of Wellbeing. It's what we are all about. We aim to engage with HASSRA members and potential new members as well as site sponsors in providing advice, guidance, support, ideas and encouragement. Many of our members have benefited from the promotional dynabands we were giving away to members during the first phase of the launch. These act as an excellent tool to assist with stretching and toning. Please see the link below for some tips on various exercises to make the most of your "stretchy " band. | ||

Best Practice and Good Ideas |
||
This is where I hope this section of our Intranet site will prove particularly useful. I am constantly amazed at some of the great ideas that I see being put into practice at HASSRA local club sites around the country and I’d like to share these ideas with the rest of the HASSRA community. Why reinvent the wheel every time when we already have a template to deliver something beneficial and most importantly enjoyable. |

Through this site I’d like to publish different ideas in terms of events, activities and suggestions on how we as individuals and also as teams, ideally working within a HASSRA framework, can start to support and encourage lifestyle changes as well as to inform and refine our future activities. My intention is to update this site on a regular basis with new ideas and tips on how to take this forward so I therefore would like to invite any individual, either a HASSRA member or a potential new member or HASSRA clubs to contact me on moz.baker@dwp.gsi.gov.uk or alternatively on 07810 291288 with details of what you’re doing in the name of Wellbeing or tips on how we can help with areas such as stress, nutrition, sleep, work life balance and activity. • Do you have any healthy recipes you’d like to share? • Are you a member of a Walking Group? Where do you walk? How is it set up? • Are you a member of a slimming group? How does it work? What about Swimming, Cycling, Relaxation, Meditation, Discussion Groups? • Have you been involved in any taster days for things such as Yoga, Indian Head Massage, Pilate’s etc? How did it work? Any recommendations? • Do you have any suggestions for possible additions to our HASSRA programme in taking forward the Wellbeing agenda? • Any pictures and new stories of how launches and subsequent events have gone would also be most welcome. This is your site to share your news and stories with your HASSRA colleagues. To encourage your support and assistance within this project I will be offering a small HASSRA gift to the best ideas received so please get in touch. It really will be great to hear from you. HASSRA is here to help and really can make a difference. Please take note of my contact details and also those of your Regional Business Partner who will be more than happy to discuss any plans you may have. I look forward to hearing from you!
