CUPE NB’s First-Ever Wellness Forum: A Great Success!

CUPE NB’s First-Ever Wellness Forum: A Great Success! 

Over the past two days, CUPE NB members came together to learn, connect, and prioritize wellness at our very first Wellness Forum, and what a success it was!

“A healthier workplace makes stronger unions.”

Members enjoyed a variety of activities, including art, beading, yoga, games, and self-reflection exercises, while also gaining valuable tools and knowledge to help them in their lives and leadership roles.

“Everybody is responsible for wellness.”

From educational workshops to a fun-filled BBQ, Bingo, and prize giveaways, there was plenty of learning, laughter, and leisure to go around.

“My key takeaway today is that stress is okay, and that we shouldn’t be afraid of it.” -Member in attendance.

Thank you to all our presenters, volunteers, and participants for helping make this inaugural event such a success. We hope everyone left feeling inspired and equipped with new tools for their wellness journey.

“Give yourself grace and kindness, and extend it to others.”- RD Sandy Harding

 

đź’š We can’t wait to do it again and hope to see even more of you at next year’s Wellness Forum!

Judy Darcy ”Leading from the Heart” book launch event

Leading from the Heart BY JUDY DARCY – In Conversation with Iris Lloyd

In this rich and inspiring memoir, Judy Darcy recounts the remarkable turns that brought her from library worker to president of Canada’s largest labour union, and from there to groundbreaking legislator focused on many of our most pressing issues, including health care, the rights of immigrant workers and the toxic drug crisis.

“A personal landscape of trade unionism, feminism and progressive politics indelibly intertwined-written with such ease, such rollicking humour, such a torrent of anecdotal pageantry.”-STEPHEN LEWIS FORMER CANADIAN AMBASSADOR TO THE UNITED NATIONS AND UN SECRETARY-GENERAL’S SPECIAL ENVOY FOR HIV/AIDS IN AFRICA
