INTRODUCING WeCare - A SUPPORT PACKAGE FOR ALL TEAM MEMBERS

Dear Team Members,

In response to the general pressures of modern life, and also this challenging period of time brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic and other uncertainties in the wider world, we wish to ensure that all Team Members are getting support should they need it. That's why we're delighted to announce that as a Team Member of the Platinum Group, you now have access to WeCare, a brand new support service (provided by Canada Life) designed to help in times of difficulty, whatever the reason/s for those struggles.

The new support service, WeCare, provides 24/7 access to UK-based GPs and specialists online.
