A MESSAGE FROM OUR WELLNESS AMBASSADOR BIBI BASKIN (image of Bibi here)
“I am delighted to be the Wellness Ambassador for Wellness Cork and to introduce The W Mark and that Cork is the first county in Ireland to have it and Ireland as a nation is the first in the world to introduce it. For a business or orgnisation to proudly display The W Mark as The Symbol of Wellness, it is a strong statement of intent on their part that they are committed to Wellness in the Workplace and that they are very mindful of the important role that Wellness has for all of their Team. As many people will know I am passionate about Wellness and from my many year in India and seeing the importance that so many people place on Wellness and a proper work life balance, I see that embracing Wellness in the Workplace will not only assist each member of the Team in a business or organisation but it will also assist the business with a culture of Wellness. I want to see every business and organisation embracing Wellness in a meaningful way and the first step is to have your business awarded The W Mark” – Bibi Baskin, Wellness Ambassador
