Role of the Workplace Coordinator

Before the Challenge:

  • Put your contact details on the Sea2Sea poster and put it up on your staff notice board or in a prominent place. It’s not too late to have further employees register. Encourage as many people as possible to take part!

  • Put up your large wall chart, the Have a Go poster with bonus points score sheet and the tick fruit & veg poster for staff to see.

  • Give out personal activity cards to all participating staff.

  • Ask staff to put their names up on the wall chart or write them up yourself.

  • More personal activity cards and posters are available from Sport Canterbury if you do not have enough.

  • Talk to your Health and Safety Committee or form a small sub-committee to look at ideas to encourage staff to be active.

  • Consider supplying fresh fruit to staff.
