Online Global Stress & Wellbeing Summit 2025

The next Summit will be held on Wednesday 5 November 2025. Details will appear here during the next few months.

Who Is the Summit For?

The Summit programme is designed for health professionals and anyone interested in reducing stress, including mental health first aiders, counsellors, psychologists, therapists, HR advisers, coaches, trainers, and specialists in organisational change. It is also designed for business leaders and managers in the public, charity, and corporate sectors.

The 2024 Summit - A Valuable Resource

This one-day online experience, held on Wednesday 6 November, was well-attended and shared the latest thinking and cutting-edge strategies for reducing stress, improving mental health, and increasing wellbeing. The Summit offered valuable tools that could be put to use immediately.

It exemplified ISMA^UK’s 2024 theme, Campaigning to Reduce Stress and Improve Wellbeing.

What Topics Were Covered?

The Summit featured over 20 expert speakers, all international thought leaders in their fields, who shared their knowledge and insights. We were especially delighted that ISMA^UK Patron Professor Sir Cary Cooper CBE took part in the opening panel session.

There were four panel sessions and a lunchtime presentation -

Beyond the Half Century: Reflecting on the Past, Charting the Future
Community Care: How Organisations Champion Health, Safety and Wellbeing
Building Resilience: Nourishing Your Body with the Right Foods and Supplements (lunchtime presentation)
Fostering a Healthy Workplace Culture: Proven Strategies That Work
AI and the Future: Minimising Stress in the Light of Technological Advancement

In addition to the panel sessions, there was also a free-to-attend live networking session, Getting to Know You, where delegates met ISMA^UK members and other attendees from around the world.
