Working until we drop…. We’re all guilty of it! At Little Blackbird we are in the middle of an incredibly busy spell (which we are very thankful for!!) but this afternoon we decided to have a very impromptu team build and take some time out! We had lunch out followed by a very competitive game of mini golf (Ade’s choice) 🤣🙌 Great to re-group, have a laugh and do something fun, with points deducted for anybody who initiated work talk! 🤣 The big question is, who do you think was crowned champion?! 🤔 #wellbeingmatters #timeout #worklifebalance #littleblackbird

We had an absolutely fantastic day yesterday working with a new client in a new field. COMPLEX CASE MANAGEMENT LIMITED take a holistic approach to supporting the needs of individuals who have experienced catastrophic injuries. We led a well-being and resilience training day which included managing stress, emotional intelligence and well-being fundamentals. We explored motivation and the benefits of really connecting with the “why” behind the work that we do. Finally we ensured that the team had practical and meaningful tools to evaluate and manage their personal well-being on a day to day basis. Lots of active exercises, walks and talks and time spent in the sunshine supported some really open and honest conversations and great enthusiasm from a really kind and caring group of people. The ethos of Complex Case Management of “Guiding rehabilitation and fulfilling lives” is at the heart of all they do, and this was so evident in the compassion, care and dedication that we saw in their staff team. A brilliant example of a company who prioritise the well-being needs of their teams, to equip them to better support others! #complexcasemanagement #wellbeinginterventions #compassion #littleblackbird

🌳🚶🏔️ Never underestimate the power of something as simple as a Walk and Talk in nature! Out and about today with a fantastic group of school lads as part of a long term well-being programme we are delivering in a local High School. The conversations we have had have been so deep and insightful, and probably wouldn’t have happened sitting down in a school environment! Always get out and about when you can 🌳 #shouldertoshoulder #walkandtalk #youngpeople #wellbeing #littleblackbird

World Suicide Prevention Day 🌎 A throw back photo to me and my pal Toot ❤️ Happy, care free times enjoying life - nobody could have predicted back then how his life would end. It’s still impossible to comprehend. Days like today raise awareness, but we all need to be more aware every day. Talk to your friends, demonstrate vulnerability, normalise difficult feelings that we all experience at times, be a listening ear, make plans together. Show them how much you care and how much they bring to the world. We all need to tackle it together ❤️ #worldsuicidepreventionday #lossbysuicide #tackleittogether #littleblackbird

❤️ A big day for our Little Blackbird family as our youngest starts Reception! For those of you who have followed our story and our “why”, his story inspired the name of our business and led to a change in the focus of the work that we do ❤️ Becoming parents makes you view the world differently and changes your priorities. Overcoming trauma changes your perspective and makes you realise that the most important things in your life are the simplest things - the health and happiness of those we love the most. Our aim will always be to impact positively on Well-being, and make a difference where we can ❤️ #newstarts #parenting #overcomingtrauma #reflection #positiveimpact #littleblackbird
