APTUS CONNECTIONS ISSUE 18 - FUTURE WORKFORCE

Macmillan Bake Off Colleagues at Bolton head office and our North East Follingsby Depot embraced the Aptus Bake Off in aid of Macmillan Coffee Morning, raising more than £250 for Macmillan Cancer Support. A generous selection of home-baked treats and store bought goodies were displayed for enthusiastic colleagues to sample and vote for their favourite bake. The funds raised will support the charity’s work providing essential services to those impacted by cancer.

Family Fun Day Thank you to all our colleagues and their families who came along to the Aptus Family Fun Day in September and made it such an enjoyable occasion. Over 200 guests joined us at Guy’s Thatched Hamlet in Lancashire for an afternoon of hospitality, entertainment and sports day action. Aptus is a family-oriented business and the annual occasion, which has been running since 2015, is one of the ways we are able to thank our team and their families for all their hard work and support. Know Your Numbers Throughout summer, we arranged ‘Know Your Numbers’ clinics, in partnership with UK Healthcare. The days were well attended with colleagues getting the opportunity to find out their blood pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose levels, among other health checks. The 20-minute session with a wellbeing coach included a conversation about lifestyle satisfaction to enable the coach to assess daily stress levels, work-life balance, energy levels and sleep quality. Results were provided on the spot, accompanied by a personalised report and, where required, colleagues were referred for further consultation.

Aptus Litter Pickers The Aptus Litter Pickers have been back in action! Business administration apprentice Marley Boardman, and CAD technician Tom Daly, supported our Green Team during a clean-up of the grounds around Aptus House Head Office. Thanks to their efforts the area continues to be litter-free and enjoyable for all employees.
