Hear how the LNER Health and Wellbeing team are helping their colleagues to achieve happier and healthier working lives, by giving them both online and offline support to improve their chosen lifestyle areas.

Mark Newns from Keltbray’s Thrive programme shares his journey of supporting physical and mental health in our ‘macho’ industry, from being met with a cynical response to having his colleague tell anyone who would listen, ‘Mark is okay and saved my life’.

Andy Baines-Vosper tells us about initiatives in place to support their diverse workforce, including a wellbeing app, monthly wellbeing book giveaways, and a wellbeing WhatsApp community. Importantly, he encourages us to talk openly. Because it’s OK to not be OK.

Working nights or odd hours can confuse your body clock, and it’s much harder to sleep during the daytime. But thankfully there are practical steps you can take to help manage your sleep and stay alert while on duty.

This session is all about the impact shift work can have on our sleep patterns and wellbeing. We cover important safety considerations, as well as positive strategies for healthier sleep.

It’s well documented that shift work can lead to metabolic disorders. But there are ways to reduce your risk. This session explores what the science says and how to create healthy, satisfying food that’s easy to pack for work.
