Wednesday Business Club Open Networking Meeting 28th May 2025
The business benefits of workplace health and well being
The Workplace Wellbeing team is committed to enhancing the health and wellbeing of Oxfordshire's working-age population, which in turn supports the success of local businesses and boosts the local economy. The presentation will highlight the key elements of an ideal workplace where employees can flourish, the advantages of maintaining a healthy workforce, and the ways our team can assist you in achieving these goals.
Our open meetings are just that, open to all business categories. In general we have an interesting speaker from the public or private sector and on occasion from a local charity. The event offers plenty of time for networking, both before and after the event and a great breakfast. These meetings are a great place to further improve your network contacts and build on the connectivity between businesses locally. Guests are therefore very welcome to attend whether new to networking or a seasoned pro, we always look forward to meeting you.
