Our healthcare system is incredible in many ways, but it’s become transactional and lost touch with what’s actually needed. The reality is, the ever growing workload placed on the profession means that patients get a 10-min GP slot and/or a quick chat at the pharmacy counter, with the hope that their issues will be fixed and they won’t need to go to hospital. Some GPs, Pharmacists and the teams within these settings are exceptional, often going above and beyond when they can. However, I’ve seen first-hand how the pressure on time and resources makes this extremely difficult. People do care about their patients and communities, but it’s near impossible to dig deeper, work proactively and help people stay well rather than simply manage illness. Medication will always have an important place in healthcare, but the standard of care needs to go beyond prescriptions. We need to focus on prevention, healthier outcomes, and the long-term wellbeing of people before they reach crisis point. That’s the motivation behind FitPharm UK. This will be a platform where healthcare and fitness work hand-in-hand to deliver meaningful, personalised support. Our goal is to make prevention practical and achievable for businesses who value their employees, and recognise how their health and wellbeing can have a significant impact on business performance. If we can combine medical expertise with the science of fitness, nutrition, and behaviour change, we can start to make the shift from reactive care to proactive health. If you’re a business leader and believe your employees deserve the same level of care and support as your business does, then join our waitlist and let’s make a plan to work together 🤝 https://lnkd.in/eE5KWu5m

Exciting times ahead for us. A huge thanks to everyone who’s shown their support so far, whether by providing advice or joining our waitlist, it’s very much appreciated! We’re just getting started!! If you’re looking to reshape the world of preventative health and employee wellbeing, reach out and see how we can help 🤝

“The reality is the health of our people and the health of our economy can either exist in either a virtuous or vicious circle. If people have good health, the economy benefits; if the economy provides the means for a healthy life, health improves.” Taken directly from a report by the Institute for Public Policy Research. According to the report, employee sickness costs the UK over £100 billion a year. A big takeaway from this was a significant portion of this cost isn’t necessarily down to absence from sickness, but from lack of productivity due to people working through sickness and ill health. Meaningful investment in employee health & wellbeing is clearly necessary, and shouldn’t be considered as a mere tick box exercise to look more attractive or slightly reduce your tax bill. If you’re serious about protecting those who drive your business forward, and believe that their health & wellbeing can have a direct impact on whether your business thrives or not, then we might just have the solution. We’re combining personalised healthcare and fitness to support employees before burnout, illness or stress take hold, allowing for a more positive and productive workforce.

Excited to introduce FitPharm UK, where fitness meets healthcare to reshape the future of workplace wellbeing. After nearly a decade working in healthcare, one thing has become clear: prevention doesn’t work when health and fitness operate in isolation. Right now, there’s a growing shift from reactive to proactive health, which is promising. But we’re still missing something important. If we’re serious about preventative health, fitness professionals need to be part of the conversation alongside healthcare providers. That’s why I’m creating FitPharm UK, a platform designed to bridge the gap between fitness and medicine, and provide a smarter, more human approach to employee wellness. From my own experience, I understand the challenges of working in high-pressure environments. Leading teams, managing patients, and staying on top of everything while running on empty isn’t sustainable. Burnout affects more than just healthcare. It impacts employees in every sector. FitPharm UK aims to support employees before they reach that point by providing: 👉🏻 Personalised health and fitness plans 👉🏻 Access to Pharmacist-led support and proactive care 👉🏻 A central wellness hub to track progress, stay educated, and take control of their health And that’s just the starting point!! If you’re a business leader looking to offer something more meaningful than free snacks or generic wellness perks, and want to invest in your team’s long-term health and performance, FitPharm UK will be for you.
