Deborah Thomas

Said the following about London City Focus Group:

“This group of people are absolutely amazing. They do so much for their colleagues and charities. Every month the team put on 2 events at 2 of our stations (London Bridge & Cannon Street) to promote health and wellbeing and to boost morale. They have been doing this role for over 10 years and deserve to be recognised for their persistence to help and support our staff. They are always there for their colleagues with a listening ear and signposting to services that are available. They are Wellbeing Champions and are part of the Incident Care Team that go out to any unfortunate incidents that occur on our network.

Over the years they have held International Food Days (where colleagues bring in their traditional dishes), organised healthy challenges, organised days out, held lots of wellbeing days including pamper days, organised for the DIY Health Check Kit to be used at the locations, they have organised collections for charities and have helped out at local refuge centres in London.

Their commitment to helping and supporting staff both mentally and physically is truly astounding, they really do deserve recognition for everything that they do.“
