Buzzworks explain why top Bridge of Weir venue The Coach House is closed on Monday

A Bridge of Weir pub and restaurant will close on Monday to allow staff to take part in a wellbeing day.

The Coach House is one of 16 venues owned by Buzzworks Holdings which will close for the annual event for the entire workforce.

It will see its 650 team members meet up, get to know each other in the great outdoors and take part in activities to help boost mental health.

Buzzworks, which has been recently named in The Best Companies to Work For in the UK list, has invested over £12,000 to allow the team across the business to enjoy time off together and improve their wellbeing – funding a wide range of activities including hill climbing, golfing, pottery painting and escape rooms.

Managing director Kenny Blair said: “We love asking our people for suggestions on what else we can do to create a happy, positive working environment that stays with them after they finish their shifts and head home, and our wellbeing day forms just one part of an ongoing programme of initiatives that support our people both within the business and in their personal life.

“The two are intertwined and it’s something we are always mindful of.

“Now more than ever, it’s important that we all look after our own well-being so we, in turn, can look after those that matter most to us.”

He added: “Throughout the past year, many of our people have given back to the local communities we operate in either by volunteering or taking on a variety of fundraising challenges, so with this in mind it’s time to give back to them and reward our people with a day that focuses on them.”

Buzzworks aims to support the communities it operates in as well as placing an emphasis on its team wellbeing.

This year, the Buzzworks team has raised more than £10,000 so far for a variety of good causes, including running the Troon 10k and completing the Mighty Stride at this year’s Edinburgh Kilt Walk.

The business is looking for staff across all aspects of the business, from kitchen to front of house.
