3. Social Wellbeing
When I am socially well, I have a sense of belonging and feel
connected to those around me. I take the time to communicate, to
stay connected and to contribute to the groups I am a part of. I act
with kindness and compassion and I appreciate and respect both
the differences and similarities between myself and others.

performance and long-term health is maintained.

Digital Wellbeing
When I am digitally well, I feel in control of the technology in my
personal and professional life. My workplace technology helps
me do my job and I don’t feel distracted or overwhelmed by it. I
feel confident switching off from work outside of hours and
manage screen usage in my personal time, ensuring it doesn’t
negatively impact my relationships, wellbeing or sleep.
MY ROLE

Mental & Emotional Wellbeing
When I am mentally and emotionally well, I can think clearly. I
am aware of my feelings and feel able to choose how to
respond to them. I have the personal resources and resilience
to effectively respond to varying levels of challenge and know
when to ask for help.
