StaffConnect – Let’s stay connected

StaffConnect is the new communications app for LTHT, available to all colleagues. All staff will have already received an email with instructions on how to download the app and log in.

Why an app?

When we have talked to colleagues about what could be improved in LTHT internal communications, people have always highlighted not being able to read emails or access a PC and getting too much information that is not relevant. StaffConnect allows internal communications to be much more accessible and makes more targeted, personalised content.

What can I do on StaffConnect?

With the launch of StaffConnect, staff will be able to use their Trust or personal smart phone or their desktop to access to all the latest Trust news usually received via email, including Intouch and Start the Week. Staff will also be able to access more personalised information from their CSU or corporate team in the My Community feed, once this is up and running. Staff will be able to ask a question, comment on a story or tag a colleague to get the conversation going.

Why don’t you give it a try?

There are other functionalities to explore within StaffConnect, including a section for events, a dedicated survey area and an area to store frequently accessed documents that can be shared within a team. Feedback is invited through commenting on one of the posts or by answering some of the questions in the survey section of the app.

Staff Lottery – what’s on your wishlist?

Did you know that, as an LTHT staff member, you could be in with a chance to win up to £1,000 every month? Did you know you can apply for funding to improve staff amenities in your workplace?

Join the Staff Lottery and you will be automatically entered into the monthly draw with the potential to be one of ten lucky winners. Prizes range from £50 up to a jackpot of £1000! Membership costs just £2 a month and comes from a salary deduction, so once signed up you don’t need to worry about a thing. And if you fancy your chances you can increase your likelihood of winning by paying for multiple entries – for example, paying £10 a month will give you five entries into the monthly draw, making you that more likely to be a winner! Look out for special bonus prize draws also held throughout the year. The Staff Lottery bidding process is a simple concept – your money, your projects. Funds are drawn from staff membership and allow any member of staff to apply for funds for an improvement to amenities in their work environment. This could be almost anything – from a new kettle or fridge, to outdoor picnic benches or rest rooms – the lottery team want to hear what’s on your wishlist. For more information on how to sign up or on making a bid for funding, head over to the Staff Lottery Intranet page. Good luck!
