Angela Steel, Founder & CEO
Hello, and thank you for visiting our website. I hope I’ll have the opportunity to tell you a lot more about SuperWellness in due course, but in a nutshell, we’ve been supporting organisations and their employees now for about 12 years. In that time, we’ve worked with over 1000 organisations, across sectors from rail and construction to City offices. Helped by our UK-wide team of wellbeing consultants and experts, we’ve hosted over 15,000 webinars, workshops and training courses. Health, physical and mental wellbeing, and caring for your workforce have never before been so important.
Actually, my real story began way back, when I was in my 20s. I was doing a lot of travelling then, didn’t eat very healthily, I smoked 10 a day and was often getting the flu. One day I read an inspiring article about a wellness retreat in a remote village in Thailand. Always up for a challenge, I took the plunge and it proved to be an epiphany. It opened my eyes, changed my life, and led to me forming my own business.
After re-training for 3 years, I started SuperWellness in 2011. I was lucky enough to win an Entrepreneur of the Year award and we caught the attention of the corporate sector who liked our employee wellbeing programmes, nutrition workshops and team challenges. Our clients have included Vitality, Network Rail, Kier Group, Harrods, The National Oceanography Centre, HSBC, PwC, The London Stock Exchange, Visa and many more. Although SuperWellness has grown and evolved since then, our workplace wellbeing ethos remains centred around prevention.
Over the past few years, workplace wellbeing has become a more strategic and embedded function for organisations, and my own enthusiasm for this area led me to undertake a Masters in Organizational Psychology at Birkbeck. At the end of 2023 I completed my research project focused on the experience of wellbeing leads, the challenges they face, as well as the skills and characteristics that lead to success in their role. I recently presented my findings at the European Academy of Occupational Health Psychology Conference 2024. We are excited to be building on these insights by developing much needed certified training courses and a professional community to offer workplace wellbeing leads the support they need in their role.
If you’d like to share an exploratory chat with me, in strict confidence and with no obligation, about ways in which SuperWellness might help you, now, or perhaps later this year, I’d be happy to hear from you. I hope you’ll feel free to drop me a line on angela@superwellness.co.uk.
