Everyone knows that juggling a work / life balance can be stressful. Keeping quiet and soldiering on is a very ‘British’ way. Too many of us hide behind our bravado stating that we’re OK, when in all honesty we’re most probably not!

It’s very important to take stock, and to feel able to talk open and honestly about the daily stresses you try to manage.

 “The company workforce is an organisation’s most valuable resource. It is highly difficult, or even impossible, to replace this human asset which is why ‘workforce wellness’ is an organisational imperative.” – Carole Spiers, ISMA Chair, Founder of National Stress Awareness Day.
