On this Remembrance Day, we honour the courage, sacrifice, and dedication of the men and women who have served in conflicts past and present. Their bravery has shaped the freedoms we enjoy today.

Since August 2023, Alliance has been a signatory member of the Armed Forces Covenant. Since then, we have proudly supported the Armed Forces Community through hosting business forums, supporting cadets, and achieving a Silver Employer Recognition Award.

We reflect with gratitude on the service of those who gave so much

Bullying doesn’t stop at the school gates, it can happen in the workplace too.

This year’s Anti-Bullying Week theme, Power for Good, reminds us that we all have the ability to create kinder, safer environments where everyone feels respected and supported 🌟

At Alliance Plus, we believe every workplace has the power to make a difference. From building positive cultures to supporting those affected by bullying, we’re here to help organisations use their Power for Good to strengthen wellbeing and connection across teams 💪

Wednesday Wellness: Stretch It Out🧘‍♂️

Feeling that midweek slump? Take 5 minutes to stretch at your desk or step outside for a quick walk. A little movement can do wonders, easing tension, lifting your energy, and clearing your mind.

On Stress Awareness Day, it’s the perfect reminder that small actions make a big difference. Moving your body helps release stress, boost focus, and bring calm to even the busiest day.

So pause, breathe, and stretch it out, your mind and body will thank you. 🌿

🌿 It’s Stress Awareness Day! 🌿

We all like to think of home or work as our “safe place”, somewhere to unwind, focus, and feel in control. But what happens when both start to feel stressful?
Balancing professional pressures with personal responsibilities can leave us feeling stretched and overwhelmed. Stress doesn’t just affect our mood, it impacts our sleep, focus, relationships, and overall wellbeing.

At Alliance Plus, we take a holistic approach to wellbeing, supporting the whole person, not just workplace challenges, but everything that influences your mental health and happiness.

This , take a moment to reflect on your own wellbeing:
💬 Where do you feel most calm and supported?
🕰️ Are you giving yourself permission to rest and recharge?
🤝 Do you have the support you need to manage stress effectively?

Remember, small steps can make a big difference, and it’s okay to ask for help.

Together, we can make both home and work the safe, supportive spaces they should be 💚
