What we offer

Overview

With strong evidence to show that too much sitting is bad for our health and wellbeing and can be costly to employers and the NHS; the primary aim of SMART Work & Life is to support staff across an organisation to sit less throughout the day, whether in the office or at home, and also during leisure time.

SMART Work & Life can be tailored to the needs of your organisation; from online resources, to eLearning to Workplace Champion training to full organisation evaluation, SMART Work & Life has something for every person within every organisation, regardless of size or sector.

We are making  SMART Work & Life available in various packages depending on the needs of your organisation:

  • Basic (our online only offer)
  • Champion Support (online portal access, plus champion training and ongoing support)
  • Exclusive (everything above plus a bespoke evaluation project to fully understand the impact of implementing SMART Work & Life in your organisation)

OUR ONLINE PORTAL

Regardless of the package you choose, you and others from your organisation will get access to a wealth of resources and eLearning available via our online SMART Work and Life portal.

We have split the portal into three easy to navigate areas…

This is further enhanced in our Champions Support package through our virtual training and champions’ academy.
