Wellbeing training and support will be delivered to British Rowing staff throughout the rest of this year through a new partnership with Yoke Consultancy.

The collaboration between Yoke - which aims to build resilient cultures for teams and organisations - and a key group of British Rowing staff will centre around measurement through the Human Sustainability Index.

It will involve individual reflection and group discussion, which it is claimed will enabling the staff members to better navigate change and thrive in their working environment.

"We've been thinking about the issue of wellbeing for probably three to four years, and one of the areas we've been working hard on is in transforming our business culture," said British Rowing chief executive Andy Parkinson.

"Yoke have provided invaluable insight since beginning our partnership and we look forward to continuing to shape a strong culture of wellbeing across the business for the long-term."

Rachel Fellowes, founder of Yoke, said: "It is an absolute pleasure to work with British Rowing to explore what a high performance and high wellbeing culture actually means in practice.

"We look forward to continuing to push the boundaries of experimentation in the future."

Throughout the relationship, Yoke and British Rowing will collaborate on a number of blog posts from British Rowing staff, while Parkinson will also feature in a facilitated learning circle event with Fellowes on August 10.
