Hello from our CEO!

February often gets a bad rap. The new-year optimism of January has worn off, the cold, wet winter weather is lingering, and spring still seems so far away. Yet while I would normally share in the ill-feeling towards the shortest month in the calendar, this year things are different.

Why? Because February 2023 is a milestone month for Medigold Health, full of fantastic things to celebrate.

First, it sees the launch of our brand new quarterly newsletter, The Medigold Memo, with this jam-packed bumper first issue.

We know from listening to our customers just how important it is to you that we keep you informed about what’s happening both across our business and within the general world of workplace health and wellbeing. We think that this newsletter will provide the perfect platform for us to do just that, enabling us to connect more with with the companies and organisations we serve and giving you the chance to get to know the wonderful people we have working behind the scenes to deliver your occupational health services. We hope it will also allow you to learn more about how we can support you to better look after your employees.

The next page offers just a snapshot of what we’ve got in store for you in this and future issues.

Second, (and I am immensely proud to be able to say this) it sees Medigold Health celebrate our 25th birthday!

Yes, that’s right - we have been supporting the nation’s employers to keep their people in work, safe and well for a quarter of a century.

I’m sure you’ll agree that is really something to shout about, and we’ve got a whole host of exciting events planned to honour our silver anniversary year, as we talk about more in our special feature on page 16.

Here’s a sneak peak of what’s in store on the following pages!

Health Notes

In every issue, we’ll be highlighting opportunities to engage your staff with pertinent health and wellbeing issues, providing information about upcoming national health awareness campaigns and events, and running features offering advice and top tips to share with your teams. Plus, we can also reveal that our Health Awareness Campaigner, Steve Thompson MBE, will be making a regular appearance with his column Tackling Health Head On with Steve Thompson – flip to page 12 to find out more!

Our services under the spotlight

Medigold Health provide an extensive portfolio of specialist health and wellbeing solutions designed to help our clients keep their people in work, safe, and well, so in every newsletter we’ll be shining a spotlight on the different services available to you and the benefits they could bring for your business.

People are at the heart of everything we do

This is where we’ll be introducing to you to the wonderful people who are at the heart of everything we do here at Medigold Health, to help bring our teams to life and help you put a face to the name! It’s our opportunity to recognise our colleagues’ achievements, share their stories and celebrate the amazing things they’ve been doing to support our company, our customers and our communities throughout the year.

Company News

We’ll be keeping you posted on everything that’s been happening across the Medigold Health Group, making sure you stay in the loop on key developments within the business through our company timeline, letting you know about upcoming events and future plans, and sharing our successes.

We really hope you enjoy this first issue and as always, we would love to hear what you think. If you’ve got any feedback, or suggestions about what you’d like to see in future newsletters, do get in touch with us.
