All NHS teams are encouraged to get involved in the NHS-CHORUS Network. If you are interested, please sign up using the link below as soon as possible. The NHS-CHORUS Network will research, share and develop best OH&WB practice:

• Effective cross-trust working, supported by a research team, to develop, deliver, and evaluate staff physical activity initiatives.

• Build critical mass to attract and secure funding for initiatives.

• Members will include a mix of regions and Trust types.

Map Existing Initiatives:

• Collect and review information on staff physical activity programmes already running in NHS Trusts.

• Identify who these initiatives target and whether they have been adapted for different staff groups or ethnicities.

What NHS Trusts will gain:

• Early access to a national overview of physical activity initiatives across the NHS.

• Opportunities to help design programmes tailored to diverse staff groups.

• Support for improving staff health, wellbeing, and retention.

• Inclusion in a national network influencing policy and practice.

• Opportunities to learn best practice from others.

• Involvement in ongoing nationally impactful research on healthcare worker health and well-being.

What we are asking NHS Trusts to do:

• Identify a named contact to join NHS-CHORUS, participating in three online meetings over 10 months (i.e. approximately 3-4 hours of time over 10 months).

• Share information on existing or past physical activity programmes in your Trust/organisation. Information provided will not be linked in any published material to individuals nor trusts.

• Link us with colleagues who can provide details about these existing or past initiatives.
