  3. Organising a successful NSAD 2012 Below is a quick checklist to help you organise your NSAD 2012 programme. This year’s theme is “Defining Outcomes for Wellbeing at Work”. You will find the downloads to accompany this guide on our website. www.isma.org.uk Start by thinking about: Who is your audience: staff, clients, patients, customers, passers by? Who should be involved in the event: HR, Health Promotion, Occ Health, Health and Safety? How will you advertise the event: Comms team, marketing posters, word of mouth? What will the day involve: Training, Massage, Health checks, EAP providers, Occ Health? Will you be giving away any freebies: Leaflets, Balloons, Samples, Stress Balls, Stress Cards? Are your stress/wellbeing policies up to date or do they need amending? Where will the event take place: Training room, canteen, open area? Will you provide a healthy lunch? Will you seek delegate feedback from the event, if so who will collate the information There is lots to think about but the main thing is that you make the day fun and interactive

  4. Delivery of the session The first page of the “Defining Outcomes for Wellbeing at Work” is an overview of what wellbeing is and the benefits of improving our wellbeing. This page is an introduction to the ‘Nef 5 Ways to Wellbeing’ that looks at a set of evidence based actions that help improve personal wellbeing. Evidence suggests that a small improvement in wellbeing can help to decrease some mental health problems and also help people to flourish. This year’s NSAD is looking and ways we can improve our general wellbeing and that of others.
