New charitable offer launched for UK SME British Safety Council members
By
on 14 July 2025
From July until the end of the year, places are being made available to them to take up on the Workplace Wellbeing Programme. Members can undertake 12 months on the programme, which helps them to develop a wellbeing strategy, at no additional cost.
The UK members will just need to commit to undertaking assessments of their staff as part of the programme as well as providing feedback on their progress at the start and end of the 12 months. The offer is part of British Safety Council’s work as a charity to support SMEs, who often lack the same HR or other resources enjoyed by larger organisations.

Members and customers with more than 250 staff can still purchase a place on the Workplace Wellbeing Programme, at all three levels – Independent, Supported and Premium.
In the Independent Tier you get access videos, guides and a range of other digital resources. The Supported tier of our Workplace Wellbeing Programme provides you with video guidance, written resources, and access to a dedicated Support Manager. As you watch our video guidance, your dedicated Support Manager is on hand to guide you through the journey of how to write and implement a wellbeing strategy.
The new charitable offer for UK SME members is limited to 100 one-year places on the Independent Tier and 20 one-year places on the Supported Tier will be allocated on a first come first served basis. Email [email protected] to find out more or sign up.
