Workplace Wellbeing

Health and wellbeing workplace programs are shown to benefit both employers and employees.

For most organisations once they have looked at areas like Resilience, Stress Management and Nutrition have Financial Wellbeing on the radar. They realise that positive financial wellbeing tends to support many other areas of wellbeing and that is good for everyone.

“SurePlan’s financial wellbeing workshop was well presented and I received very positive feedback from the team. The content was both relevant and delivered in a way that was easy to understand. This was the first time we had had anyone in to speak about making progress with personal finances and the team really appreciated it. I can happily recommend SurePlan as they did a great job and were easy to work with.”

Webinar & Seminar events

An event is an excellent choice for any organisation looking to implement financial wellbeing.

  • Actionable tips
  • A range of levels to suit your team

One on one

Participants can opt into a personalised planning process. This is very needs dependant and usually this is at the participants own cost.
Where there is specific need some organisations may engage us to work with individuals and their families on a one on one basis.

We were all very impressed by the workshop presented by John, he was most accommodating to both the start/end time and the audiences’ interests. What may seem as a daunting subject to many, John made very palatable and engaging through his expertise and humour. We have already been asked by many if we will be getting John back in to take another session. We hope to have John join us again in the near future and would highly recommend this workshop to other organisations encouraging financial wellbeing in their workplace.

John was well presented, enthusiastic and prepared. Our staff thoroughly enjoyed John’s presentation and gave feedback that the content was highly relevant and delivered with a good sense of humour. Most participants arranged a follow up with the SurePlan team and said they were excited by what they’d learnt. John was flexible around timing and it was obvious he’d considered his audience. We look forward to working with John and the SurePlan team in the future and would highly recommend to any business wanting to support the financial wellbeing of their people.
