Wellbeing survey
Have your say
[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v2files/shard1/85313/a1/270707a07785ad8cbae824.jpg]Throughout the pandemic our top priority has been the health and wellbeing of our staff and students.
As our working environment changed, Rest Days, the Agile Working Toolkit and Meeting Free Fridays were introduced to help us work more flexibly and allow us to balance work and caring responsibilities.
We also made our Student Counselling Service available for staff to take advantage of, augmenting our well-established employee assistance programme provided by PAM Assist.
We launched the Wellbeing & Working from Home Hub which includes our latest guidance on successful remote working and resources for positive mental health and staying physically active.
And we shared your stories of how you and your teams have adapted your ways of working, stayed connected and promoted positive mental health and wellbeing.
As part of our ongoing commitment to listening and taking feedback, we've designed a survey to help us to understand how the University community is responding to the current situation.
It asks important questions about working from home, our ‘Rest and Recuperation Fridays’ and ‘Meeting Free Fridays’ and your work/life balance.
And it gives you the opportunity to share with us your thoughts on each of these areas so that we can continue to improve how we support staff at this time.

Translating technology into industrial applications and commercial opportunities
The University of Strathclyde is leading a team developing a new technique enabling 3D imaging of even the most fragile and delicate specimens.
The project has received a grant of £187,000 from QuantIC, the UK Quantum Technology Hub in Quantum Enhanced Imaging. The funding is the first award to be made from the Hub’s Accelerated Development Fund.
Dr Lucia Caspani, a Chancellor’s Fellow with Strathclyde’s Institute of Photonics, is leading the research.

A ‘voyage of discovery”
A scheme to boost the UK’s space businesses, and alert more firms to the possibilities space-related enterprise can bring, is set to be launched by the UK Space Agency.
The up to 10-week Business Accelerator programme, delivered in partnership with business growth experts from the University of Strathclyde and Entrepreneurial Spark, offers free virtual sessions to help companies with their sights set on space to make progress.
Businesses that may not have previously considered the opportunities presented by the space industry can also benefit. Pre-launch activity already involves a nationwide targeting of relevant businesses to alert them to the possibilities for growth.

Wildlife on your doorstep

Janine Capaldi, KE Engagement Co-Ordinator, RKES, says: "Living next to the Seafar wildlife reserve, I’ve walked there most lunchtimes during lockdown, usually with camera in tow to make the most of any wildlife opportunities. A group of deer base themselves near to my entrance to the reserve and I regularly see them on walks in the winter.
"With the deep snow lying last week, it’s provided great light to capture them as they’re normally pretty well camouflaged amongst the trees."
