Run the series

Run the
Series

Get started

Whether you’re holding The Wellbeing Journey in a sports club, a church hall, in your home or online it’s easy to get started.

Where and when

Agree a venue / digital platform and the start date and time

Plan publicity

Publicise the series using the wellbeing booklet especially designed to go with the series and to be handed out to introduce the course.

Provide your church and youth group members with printed invitations to give to friends. Personal invitations have the most impact.

Send details to your local media – download a sample press release to use

Put up posters at your local sports centre, gym, schools, colleges and community buildings.

Get talking

Talk about The Wellbeing Journey with friends, neighbours, colleagues and family

Mention the series in sermons and at events

Involve the whole church – all ages - encourage everyone to join the journey and bring a friend

Recruit the team

Pray as you prepare together to welcome guests on the journey

For an online Wellbeing Journey make sure you work out any technical challenges in advance, so your guests can watch the films and use breakout rooms.

For face-to-face sessions, get your hosts / group leaders together and pray through the series, decide who will host breakout groups and arrange any catering

Use the downloadable Leaders’ Guide to help run the sessions (available by 10 January).

Youth

Schools

We are giving the next generation of pupils a chance to reflect on their experiences and how it's impacted their wellbeing with a special adaptation. Visit the schools page .
