Support St Ann’s Hospice & Energise Your Team

For over 50 years, St Ann’s Hospice has provided specialist, compassionate care for people facing life-limiting illnesses, free of charge. Now, St Ann’s urgently needs a new hospice building to continue supporting families across Greater Manchester.

At GoVida, we understand that engaged, energised teams drive business success. As a leading employee wellbeing platform working with companies such as Amazon, BDO, and the NHS, we help businesses create healthier, happier, and more connected workplaces.

That’s why we have partnered with St Ann’s Hospice to launch Step Up for St Ann’s, a 100-mile virtual steps challenge designed to enhance employee wellbeing while raising critical funds for the St Ann’s New Hospice Appeal.

By joining the Step Up for St Ann’s Challenge, your business can help raise £250,000 for this vital cause while engaging your team in a fun and rewarding 6-week wellbeing challenge.

    “BDO have worked closely with GoVida to implement the app and promote Health and Wellbeing. Since launch in 2020 we have noticed an increase in employee engagement in wellbeing initiatives across all grades largely driven by the GoVida leader boards and team challenges.”

    James Abbott – BDO

    “This was our first time working with a wellness provider and they helped us with each step to make the initiative a great success. The customer support offered was great! Engagement levels were very high and remained high throughout the challenge. Our colleagues’ feedback was fantastic!”

    Michael Lynch – Enel X

    “I use this app daily, it reminds me to move. I go walking every day. I listen to the ‘mind sessions’ in the Mind Tracker and my ‘mood’ is noted every day which all helps towards building the GoVPs which are redeemable and also go towards charity earnings. Great app. Love it :)”
