Arc launch Workplace Wellbeing Care Boxes

Stockport arts and health charity, Arc, are launching new careboxes to help businesses in the borough support wellbeing in the workplace this Christmas.

Staff turnover due to mental ill health costs the UK economy a staggering £43.1 billion, and this Christmas, Arc is calling on Stockport businesses to change this and do more help support workforce wellbeing.

Arc’s innovative care boxes have developed by the charity’s participants who have first-hand experience with burnout, anxiety, and depression as well as the organisation’s more than 20 years experience using creativity to support good mental wellbeing. Boxes include a unique blend of creative activities designed to:

• Relax: unwind and recharge
• Strengthen: develop resilience through coping mechanisms
• Rebuild: boost confidence and self-esteem

Designed with Secret Santa or corporate gifting in mind, every purchase of the workplace wellbeing care box also helps fund Arc’s programmes, supporting transformational recoveries through the power of creativity.

What’s inside? 

• Three Creative Activities: Designed by participants who understand the importance of using creative activities to support good mental health.
• Sketchpad to Continue Being Creative: Featuring a beautiful hand designed nature-inspired pattern.
• Soothe Wellbeing Zine: Packed full of wellbeing advice and beautiful artwork, our Zine was developed by our Creative Enterprise participants, incorporating their top tips and tricks for good mental wellbeing.
