Meet Joshua the Lion! 🦁

Joshua the Lion is a gift for all our paediatric service users, to provide some fun and comfort in the midst of their healthcare provision.

About Joshua:
We created Joshua the Lion with the children whose healthcare we deliver in mind. They face more challenges than most young people will ever have to, and we want them to know that they are not alone. We created Joshua as a lion, because it’s a symbol of courage, something we see in the children we care for – something they often need on their healthcare journey. Joshua is filled with lavender which has therapeutic benefits – he can be warmed in the microwave to bring comfort and soothe muscles. The lavender aroma also creates a calming effect.

The name Joshua was inspired by our founder’s Christian faith from the Scripture in Joshua 1:9, “… Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

It’s May, which means it’s Mental Health Awareness Month!

To mark the month, we invited everyone in the office to take part in a “One Word Whiteboard”, where everyone can write one word on the board that resonates with them when they think of mental health.

What’s one word that resonates with you?

It’s International HR Day!

For this special occasion, we asked Hayley Josiah, our Group HR Business Partner, to share a few words about working in Human Resources…
Here’s what she had to say:

“I love working in Human Resources because it allows me to make a real impact on people and the wider organization. As a Group HR Business Partner with five years of experience, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the role HR plays in shaping a positive, inclusive workplace culture. I’m passionate about encouraging diversity, as I believe we all bring unique experiences and perspectives that enrich the work environment and make it more engaging and enjoyable for everyone. I also enjoy the problem-solving aspect of HR—finding thoughtful, practical solutions and aligning people strategies with the broader business goals.” 👏💚
