Jenna, Therapist
“Being able to buy additional holiday as a trainee has been amazing, it has allowed me to take the time I need to focus on my training and family, allowing the work/life balance that is so crucial for our mental health. Not something I have ever had in a workplace before.”
Cath, Information Governance Officer
“I have used the physio for about six months once a week, which has been invaluable in getting some of my mobility issues resolved.”
Kate, Marketing Manager
“This scheme has enabled me to finally get an electric car! I’m thrilled, as the scheme has made it financially possible for me.”
Jo, Press & Campaigns Executive
“I've only been in post for a year, and I've not missed a school play, Christmas concert, or summer picnic - such a refreshing change! I've been able to flex my hours around these and it's meant the world to me and my kids.”
Angela, Clinical Lead
“It’s such a comforting thought that I can be safe in the knowledge that, should anything happen to me, my loved ones will not struggle financially”
Lisa, Talent Acquisition Partner
“Our colleagues know us best and we have had some great referrals join our team – a referral is the biggest compliment our colleagues can give us!”
Angela, Clinical Lead
“Volunteering has been so enriching for me. I’m thinking about diversifying to coastal watch and beach cleans next year, to support my wellbeing and the Kentish coastline!”
Lisa, Community Engagement
“Even in my induction period, I stopped reading and shouted ‘YES, these people get people!’ when I saw the Menopause Policy! You have no idea how much that meant/means to me!”
Vicky, Mental Health Nursing Apprentice
"I feel very grateful for the opportunity to join the mental health nursing apprenticeship programme. It’s offered me an opportunity for personal development that I felt was unattainable before."
Sarah, Internal Comms Executive
“Joining the networks has allowed me not only to learn more about equality, diversity and inclusion in our workplace, but I’ve also made some lovely friends who I otherwise wouldn't have had the opportunity to connect with in my day-to-day role.”
