What is a Wellbeing Champion?  

Wellbeing Champions play a crucial role in promoting positive mental health and wellbeing.

  • They are voluntary members of staff .
  • They promote and support the implementation of Being Well at UCL.  
  • They foster a positive and supportive environment across UCL.   
  • They promote wellbeing initiatives, activities and resources.   
  • They receive inhouse training and Mental Health First Aid training.  
  • They are the first point of contact in local areas for those needing advice on wellbeing support.  
  • They are supported by, and report into, the Workplace Health team.  
  • They feedback on areas of concern to the Workplace Health team. This is incorporated into the delivery of the Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy at UCL.   

When to contact a Wellbeing Champion 

 If you a member of staff employed at UCL you can contact a Wellbeing Champion in your area for reasons such as:  

  • To find out about what wellbeing resources are on offer for staff.  
  • To find out what wellbeing activity is happening in your area.  
  • To speak to someone and get emotional support around an area that may be causing you concern. Wellbeing Champions can signpost to suitable resources or offer you space to talk about a concern.
