Why connection matters
Ensuring that we have strong ties and links to the people in our lives is vital for our mental health and wellbeing. Social groups like friends and family can boost feelings of belonging, purpose and community, as well as help reduce feelings of isolation and anxiety, especially during difficult times.
Workplaces also play a crucial role in providing a sense of belonging. They give workers a space to meet (virtually or in person), to collaborate and support each other and strive for success together. Plus, there’s the social aspect of work that helps to bolster feelings of connection between workers, like chatting over a cup of tea in the kitchen or holding a trivia session over Zoom.

Improving mental health and wellbeing in your workplace doesn’t need to be complicated.

“We have seen a positive impact since staff undertook SuperFriend’s training. People have started to connect. There’s been a shift towards a psychologically safe workplace culture – people understand that health and wellbeing is something that we are serious about. That it’s ok to ask for help and the importance of looking out for others.”
“We chose SuperFriend because it was just really clear speaking to you both [Pippa and Mark] that you are people who are really genuine, really authentic, easy to talk to – you weren’t trying to bamboozle us with lots of fancy acronyms or language about things. You were truly listening, so it was really a two-way discussion. You genuinely wanted to understand our business, what was going on for us.”
“We are delighted with the results and they speak volumes. Of the targeted staff, 77% completed the course with 65% of the team stating that they had gained knowledge and better yet, 81% of people said that they intended to implement this knowledge.”
