15 PRO INSTALLER JANUARY 2014 PRO NEWS @proinstaller1 Taking heart with health kick Staff at Hurst Plastics have been brimming with health thanks to a major programme, which aims to improve wellbeing in the workplace and reduce the risk of heart disease in Hull. Set up by the British Heart Foundation in partnership with NHS Hull and Hull City Council, the £1.5 million Hearty Lives Hull campaign, is tasked with improving the health and life expectancy of workers in Hull - an area with higher than average rates of heart disease and other serious illnesses. Hurst Plastics was one of 135 companies in the region to join the programme, which was ‘The sessions were fantastic’ delivered by Hull-based healthcare specialist ABL Health. The enthusiastic staff were provided with free health checks, exercise classes and nutritional clinics as well as sessions to help them quit smoking. They even took part in the Hull Corporate Badminton Tournament, which inspired a number of staff to take up the sport. Julie Rhodes, customer liaison and administration manager at Hurst Plastics, was one of six people who successfully gave up smoking. She said: “The sessions were fantastic and I am delighted to now be a nonsmoker!” Steve Daniels, Hurst Plastics Ltd, Tel: 01482 790790, email: steve.daniels@ hurst-plastics.co.uk, Website: www.hurstplastics.co.uk RDER BY 8PM GET IT NEXT DAY UK’s Biggest Range FREE Delivery over £45 Minimum 5 Year Guarantee FREE Returns FULL RANGE AVAILABLE ONLINE Download our FREE App!
