25 great ideas for virtual wellbeing events

Savvy businesses know just how important it is to support their people, and it’s not just about scheduling an online team meeting every Monday morning. We’ve put together an ever-growing list of activities and ideas for wellness events – book a one-off session, plan an entire week dedicated to wellbeing, or talk to us about setting up a bespoke Employee Engagement Programme that could be run for a few months or throughout the year. Take a look at our (non exhaustive) list of virtual wellbeing events, below:
