Quilter has launched a new version of its employee mental health support programme, Thrive, for financial advisers in the UK and internationally at the start of Mental Health Awareness Week.
Thrive for advisers forms part of Quilter’s “There for you” website which was launched to support financial adviser businesses through the coronavirus crisis.
Quilter suggested its new resource is offering a host of materials aimed at supporting the wellbeing of financial advisers and their clients during the pandemic.
These include podcasts and videos from Quilter’s own and external wellbeing experts and behavioural economists, tips on working effectively from home to stay connected and balance work and caring responsibilities, as well as materials on how to cope with isolation and build resilience.
The Thrive programme initially launched to Quilter employees in 2018 to enhance their personal wellbeing and mental health, and Quilter stated it also has a Thrive ambassador network to promote the programme and engage colleagues.
Quilter CEO, Paul Feeney, said: “This pandemic is the biggest behavioural and emotional challenge of our time and so I’m delighted we’re able to launch our Thrive for advisers site today as part of our wider programme of adviser support during the pandemic.
“Our workplace has now changed to our own homes and it’s just as important that we all feel supported, and that extends to the advisers that work with us.
“The hub is full of tools, resources, podcasts, webinars about building resilience and looking after your mental health at this time. I hope it will help advisers to reflect, and perhaps do some small things that will make a big difference. Clients place their trust in their adviser every day and to them they are more than just financial advisers, they are coaches and friends.
“The World Health Organisation has just published a report warning that we are on the cusp of a mental health crisis, underlining that it is vital that we all are able to access help and support, particularly when we’re feeling isolated and vulnerable.”
