After a successful moonwalk challenge to finish off 2020, last week we announced the launch of Health Boost: a six-week programme starting on 18 January, where each week we’ll help our people keep focused on uplifting all areas of their personal health whilst staying connected, to be the strongest, most capable they can during difficult times.
We could all do with a pick-me-up as 2020 ends, so as part of our Boost programme, our colleagues have been keeping themselves motivated with fresh air and exercise taking part in our Moon Walk Challenge. Check out what we've been up to.
