Cycle to Work Scheme

Rudding Park is part of the cycle to work scheme and permanent employees can use a unique link to apply through Rudding Park. By enrolling on the scheme through a recognised retailer (using the Rudding Park unique reference) and following approval through payroll, salary sacrifice then commences over the hire period (usually 12 months). The salary sacrifice is made prior to Income Tax and National Insurance contributions and, as a result, employees pay less of both.

Mental Health First Aid

Mental health first aid is a training program that teaches people how to help others by recognising and supporting colleagues who may be developing a mental health problem, experiencing a worsening of an existing mental health problem or in a mental health crisis.  This internationally recognised course helps to create a more positive workplace culture.  The aim is to support and direct employees to the appropriate professional - there are a number of staff within Rudding Park who are trained Mental Health First Aiders and these can be identified through line managers or lists on noticeboards.
