This can take the form of a business case if early in the process or a more detailed plan for the implementation of the service.

Wellbeing

Wellbeing

At CGI, we are proud to care about our members. However, wellbeing isn’t an issue exclusively concerning our business; we are equally committed to supporting the wellbeing of the communities in which we operate too. We achieve this by:
- Training our members in Mental Health First Aid
- Extending health and wellbeing initiatives with our clients and suppliers
- Collaboratively identifying initiatives to support local communities

CGI are a signatory of the 'UK-wide Mental Health at Work Commitment' curated by the mental health charity 'Mind'. We will continue to invest in training to expand upon our 300 plus UK members who are already certified Mental Health First Aiders (MHFAs). These certified members have developed a strong support network for their colleagues. To supplement this and drive the integration of best practice for physical and mental health, we will provide all our members with access to ‘Oxygen’, our online wellbeing centre of expertise.

We will invite our clients; suppliers and communities to participate in our health and wellbeing initiatives, such as our ‘MoveSpring’ step challenge (measuring steps taken) and delivering tree planting and canal restoration days to local communities.

CGI provide all our members with at least one day’s volunteering to support local initiatives or charities, making a significant difference to the communities in which we live and work.

We will work collaboratively with our clients and suppliers to identify opportunities to support local communities. An example of our commitment to wellbeing in the community is the way in which we support and sponsor local community groups and sports clubs nominated by our members. Over the last year we have sponsored kits for more than 500 different clubs and groups.
