Getting started

Health at work

Take the mission, gain support from evangelical people in your organisation.

It's time to take on Mission Very Possible. Your first step: get the right people on board from the very start. 

Discuss your colleagues' needs, and the environment and facilities at work. Then take action and start implementing your initiatives.

Charlie's healthy angels can help you. Who else do you need?

A healthy eating co-ordinator, the management, and a support group made up of representatives from across the organisation - they all play a vital role.

“You have to be out there leading from the front. You have to get everybody on board right from the top because if the site leadership are not doing it, why would the others do it? And it's great kudos for their department if their team is in the lead … they love it.”

Occupational Health Nurse, Procter & Gamble Technical Centre


What do you need to do?

The initiatives you offer to colleagues should be based on their interests and needs, and the work environment and its surroundings.

You will need to plan ahead and let people know what's available.
