All staff are invited to attend the Staff Wellbeing Fair at the Whitworth Hall on Tuesday, 30 October, 12pm– 2pm.

Please register for this free event via Eventbrite or on the day. All registered attendees will be entered into a prize draw to win one of two £250 Super Break vouchers.  

The Staff Fair will be opened by Dr Sarah Marie Hall, a University of Manchester Geography lecturer, who won the inaugural Jo Cox.  The Fair will showcase many of the wellbeing benefits you can access as a member of staff at the University of Manchester. These include representatives from the University and a range of external wellbeing benefits with cakes, gifts and artisan chocolate that will be available to buy on the day!

Wood Street Mission and Emmeline’s Pantry food bank, will be attending and are hoping all staff can bring along unwrapped donations for their Christmas Appeals. Wood Street Mission would appreciate new toys and gifts for children aged 0 – 14 years. Emmeline’s Pantry would appreciate donations of new toiletry gift sets, new pyjama sets for women, selection boxes, new toys and gifts for women and teenagers

To keep staff entertained, three University Choirs will be performing short sets during the event for you from 12.15pm onwards.

Sarah March, Head of Faculty HR and strategy lead for staff wellbeing and engagement, added: “The Staff Fair is a great opportunity for staff to come together and see the wide range of wellbeing benefits that are available for them – and hopefully grab a freebie or two!”
