Professor Dame Carol Black, Speaker, Expert Adviser on Health & Work to NHS Improvement and Chair of Ageing Better commented: “The workplace post-COVID needs to be different. It must meet the mental, physical, financial, social, and environmental needs of the workers, as well as the purposes of the organisation. The Watercooler is where you can gather, make connections, learn from colleagues’ experiences, and find the right solutions for your organisation — whatever its size or shape.”
Claire Farrow, Partner & Global Director of Content of Make A Difference Events, said: “Our ambition is to create the largest, expert-led celebration of workplace wellbeing in the UK — bringing more and more employers to the workplace wellbeing conversation.”
‘The Watercooler’ and its sister event ‘SME XPO’ are also proud to announce that they will be the UK’s first fully accessible climate neutral B2B events. To help the events achieve this, four partners were selected- Welcome, Eventwell, ClimatePartner and Event Cycle, each of whom founded with the intention of creating positive social change. From calming quiet areas for
neurodiverse attendees, event waste repurposing to measuring carbon emissions and working to offset these, ‘The Watercooler’ and ‘SME XPO’ are committed to creating an event that is kinder, more accessible, and with positive social and environmental impact at its heart.
Organised by Make A Difference Media and the Evening Standard in partnership within partnership with Mercer Marsh Benefits, AXA Health, Nuffield Health, Bupa, Good Shape & Calm for Business.
