Lovely & Healthy News

Lovely & Healthy will be working in association with Esporta health clubs from July 2008.

From July 2008 we will be working with Esporta in Lichfield to offer a host of new services and bennefits for members and some exciting new corporate packages for local businesses. Esporta have some amazing facilities to offer including professional training programmes, indoor & outdoor swimming pools, spa, sauna & steam rooms, over 70 studio classes offering a variety of group exercise sessions, activities for children from 12 weeks -17 years old, 4 outdoor tennis courts, restaurant, health and beauty and much more!

Wouldn't it be nice to finish work and go for a swim in an outdoor pool or sit and relax in a warm spa, especially if finishing 'work' meant that you'd just enjoyed a productive meeting in costa coffee helped by the pool view and free wifi access! Rather than dash off and get stuck in rush hour traffic you could try some of the healthy options in the Esporta restaurant and socialise with family, friends and colleagues.


Dame Carol Black's review of the health of Britain's working age population entitled 'Working for a healthier tomorrow' is the first ever review of its kind. The document was presented to the Secretaries of State for Health and for Work and Pensions, Alan Johnson and James Purnell on 17th March 2008 and highlighted topics such as how to improve health and wellbeing in the workplace and the scale of the sickness absence problem in Britain recently referred to in the media as 'sick-note Britain'.

Lovely & Healthy proves extremely popular at the NEC Health and Wellbeing at Work Conference.

Lovely and Healthy exhibited at the "Health and Wellbeing@Work" Conference and Exhibition at the NEC in Birmingham last week.

The exhibition was attended by over 3000 visitors and the Lovely & Healthy stand generated huge interest from businesses across the UK all eager to benefit from the diverse range of services and solutions that Lovely & Healthy provide.

We received extremely positive feedback on the edible fruit bouquet displayed on our stand and we would like to thank edible arrangements for their hard work in supplying us with such a wonderful product. We would certainly recommend ordering one from them next time you want a reward for your employees or an alternative to biscuits for those challenging meetings!
