Description
Join award winning social enterprise Oomph! Wellness and our new investors, Nesta Impact Investment, to learn more about our groundbreaking wellness programme that will help older people to be healthier and happier.
Oomph!, which stands for Our Organisation Makes People Happy, is launching an innovative, comprehensive and high quality wellness package which is available to organisations across the care sector. Proven to improve mobility, increase social interaction and enhance mental stimulation, we've already partnered with a number of large care organisations who have signed up to Oomph's new license model - including Bupa Care Services, Hallmark and Ideal Care Homes.
Meet Ben Allen, the 28 year old founder of Oomph! who will share his inspirational plans and demonstrate how Oomph!, as a social enterprise, uses unique tools to measure and evidence the positive impact of classes such as chair cheerleading, chair aerobics and strictly fun dancing. Also hear from Matt Mead, Chief Investment Officer at Nesta, and Sylvie Silver, Director of NAPA, the National Activity Providers Association.
So, don't miss out, come along and find out why your organisation should join the Oomph! movement.
