World Health Day

World Health Day is celebrated on 7 April each year, led by the World Health Organization (WHO). Each year has a theme (e.g., universal healthcare, mental health, climate & health), but the core focus is promoting healthy living, awareness, and wellbeing. It’s an ideal day for FOH teams to run meaningful, practical workplace health initiatives.
