It’s that time of year again.

The Hive IT social! A time to get together and enjoy the outdoors.

Last year, we paddled down Matlock and took an unexpected dip along the way. 😅

This time, we swapped the canoes for our walking boots and went hiking.

Thanks to our wellbeing strategy team, who work hard in organising these internal events for everyone to enjoy. And, most importantly, for helping bring everyone together.

The team took on Stanage Edge in the Peak District and ended the day in the pub for some well-deserved grub.

Back in April, we launched New to Sheffield. A brand-new website created in partnership with our friends at Learn for Life Enterprise.

We re-imagined the old Asylum Journey website. It took 18 months of listening to the community’s experiences, both the highs and the lows. In return, we developed a more user-friendly and accessible resource for anyone new to Sheffield.

A huge thank you to everyone who worked on this amazing project. 💛

Grab yourself a brew and a snack if you fancy a read of the project.

It's World Breastfeeding Week

Returning to work is one of the most common reasons breastfeeding journeys end early. Not because parents want to stop, but because the support isn't there. That's something employers can fix, so we've joined Breastfeeding in Sheffield.

We've put a breastfeeding policy in place at Hive IT:
— a private, comfortable space
— flexible working
— paid expressing breaks
— honest conversations before and after maternity leave.

And anyone visiting our office is welcome to breastfeed here.

Swipe through to see what we've committed to 👇

If you're a Sheffield employer, joining the scheme is simple and free https://www.breastfeeding-south-yorkshire.co.uk/

Last week, we got together for our annual summer social. 🌭

Good food, good company and plenty of sunshine.

For this year's social, we were kindly hosted by Riverside Kelham. It was a brilliant afternoon with the team and a chance to step away from our desks and spend some time together.

Spending time together in these settings is important. We're not just here to celebrate our work but to build relationships and connections that strengthen our team.

Thanks to everyone who came along and helped make it such a lovely afternoon. We appreciate all the hard work you do. 💛
