The Reset is a four-day corporate wellness retreat for two people from your team, run alongside delegates from ten other companies so they can be honest without an audience from the office. No flights. No once-a-year scarcity. Send two more next quarter.
Stevenson Square, Northern Quarter, Manchester. Purpose-built, with every delegate staying on-site.
Flying a team somewhere warm once a year teaches people that wellbeing happens elsewhere. We took the opposite bet: a purpose-built facility in the city, a fixed evidence-based method, and pricing designed for a quarterly wellbeing or L&D budget rather than a one-off project fund.
| Option | Typical model | Where it falls short |
|---|---|---|
| Destination retreats | Resort, flights, one flagship trip a year | Hard to repeat within a normal budget cycle, and excludes anyone who can't take a week away |
| Wellness days | On-site yoga, a talk, a smoothie bar, once or twice a year | Atmosphere without structure; little evidence the change lasts past the day |
| Booking platforms | Marketplaces of independent venues and freelance facilitators | Facilitator quality and method change from one booking to the next |
| Structure Wellness | Purpose-built Manchester facility, one four-day method, quarterly-repeatable | Built to close all three gaps: same rooms, same method, same standard, every quarter |
A programme that only does mindfulness, or only fitness, helps the fifth of the room it happens to suit. Each pillar addresses a different cause of workplace depletion, so all four run through every day rather than as separate modules.
Recovery isn't homework here. Every delegate sleeps on-site in their own acoustically treated sleep pod for all three nights.
Movement as a way to discharge stress, not a fitness test. Built around GRIDFIT, our own format of stations that scale in difficulty, not in kind.
Real, simple, sustaining food from our ground-floor restaurant, eaten together without phones. Not a diet talk.
The psychological and interpersonal work: honest peer relationships built across company lines, values under pressure, and how you lead once you're actually recovered.
Why the name. "Structure" does two jobs. It's what we hold for people during the four days, in contrast to a working week that runs on other people's urgency. And it's what we hand back at the end: not a memory of relaxing, but a structure they can rebuild for themselves at their own desk.
The order never changes, whichever companies are in the room. Days 1 and 2 build the trust that makes Day 3 possible; Day 4 turns insight into something people keep doing. Each day runs roughly 08:00 to 21:00. Select a day to see its timetable.
Lower the pace, establish safety and the rules of the room, form the two groups, and settle into the sleep pods.
Calm, welcoming and low-stakes. Nobody is rushed into opening up on Day 1; groups given room to settle do better on Day 3.
Deep work on movement and sleep, and the first real Mindset session, so the group reaches Day 3 already practised in honesty.
Energising and gradually opening. Searching, not confronting.
The hardest day: peer accountability, honest feedback and leadership under pressure, scheduled once the trust from Days 1 and 2 can hold it.
Challenging, honest and held. Every hard session is followed by a deliberate close, and the Quiet Room is always open.
Bring the pace back down, turn the week into a concrete personal plan, and close deliberately. This is the day the whole Reset is judged on three months later.
Warm, forward-looking and decisive.
People are more honest with peers who don't sit two desks away on a Tuesday. Put someone in a small group with even one colleague and part of their honesty goes on managing how they'll be seen back at the office. Our group model removes that entirely.
Pick a company in the cohort. Its two delegates are highlighted, and will always land in different studios.
Not a co-working space booked by the hour. Our facility on Stevenson Square, in the middle of Manchester's Northern Quarter, is purpose-built and ours, so the programme never breaks between sessions.
We chose the Northern Quarter on purpose. It has spent two decades rebuilding itself street by street without losing its character, which is exactly what we ask of every delegate: rebuild your capacity without becoming someone else, or leaving your life behind to do it.
Being in the city keeps The Reset affordable and repeatable, and proves the point we most want people to leave believing: a reset is something you can build close to your ordinary life.
You nominate two people. We run everything from their welcome pack to a 90-day outcomes report you can put in front of your board, with no individual's responses ever shared with you.
You put forward two delegates.
Welcome pack and pre-arrival questionnaire go to delegates.
Access, dietary and wellbeing needs confirmed.
Four days on-site at Stevenson Square.
Each delegate leaves with a printed personal plan.
A check-in sent to the delegate, not via you.
Your anonymised outcomes report arrives.
We go through results and plan what's next.
Wellbeing budgets don't get renewed on good intentions. At 90 days you receive a short outcomes report on your own delegates, benchmarked against that quarter's other cohorts.
Everything is aggregated and anonymised. We never present your retention or absence data as something we caused; where you already track it, we show it directionally and say so.
Fixed cohort sizes and our own venue keep costs predictable, so we can price The Reset for an existing wellbeing or L&D budget line. One simple price covers everything: £1,295 per delegate, plus VAT.
Two delegate places in a scheduled cohort, alongside ten other companies. No minimum term.
One place, paired with a sister company from the same sector to keep the group model intact.
Two places in a cohort every quarter for 12 months, at £1,195 a place instead of £1,295. Confirm names each quarter.
All 22 places for your organisation. Still two groups of 11, built so nobody shares a group with someone from their own team.
Swap a delegate up to five working days before arrival at no cost.
We never disclose your participation without consent, and we ask that you don't ask delegates to report back on small-group content.
If the facility is ever unavailable, your cohort moves to the next date at no extra cost.
This week is about capacity and connection, not therapy. We say that to every delegate on Day 1.
We build capacity and connection. We are not a clinical service. If something needs more support than we can offer, our lead facilitator activates a referral contact straight away and helps the person find the right place to take it.
Facilitators are trained to notice, pace and protect what happens between people. The most demanding session of the week is only ever run by someone trained in that specific method.
Our building is multi-storey and not step-free throughout. Anyone with an access need hears from our lead facilitator well before arrival to talk through exactly what we can accommodate.
If yours isn't here, ask it on the discovery call or in the form below.
Because people open up faster with strangers than with the colleague who'll be in Monday's meeting. It also lets smaller companies access a programme at a scale they couldn't run alone.
No. You receive aggregated, anonymised outcomes at 90 days. Individual survey responses and anything said in small groups stay confidential.
No. It's four full days with a real timetable from 08:00 to around 21:00, built on a fixed method. Delegates' workloads should be covered so they can be fully present.
£1,295 + VAT per delegate, covering four days of programme, three nights on-site, all meals and the 90-day outcomes report. Most companies send two people, so a Standard Seat is £2,590 + VAT. Quarterly Partners pay £1,195 + VAT a place.
No. The order of the four days is what makes Day 3 work and Day 4 stick, so we don't offer a cut-down version under our name.
Within the fixed arc, yes: for example senior-leader cohorts with more leadership content, or single-gender cohorts that still keep one person per company per group. We'll tell you plainly what flexes and what doesn't.
People Directors proving wellbeing spend works, founders of smaller businesses who can't afford two key people burning out, L&D leads folding wellbeing into leadership development, and UK leads piloting something before proposing it group-wide.
No. Every GRIDFIT session has a genuinely equal lower-intensity option. Progress is measured round by round against yourself, not anyone else.
No disclosure is ever compulsory. The format is designed to make honesty feel safer than it usually does at work, but what you share is your choice.
On-site, in your own private sleep pod, for all three nights. Sleep is one of the four pillars, so we build for it rather than sending you back to a hotel.
Devices go into a locker at reception for the working day, with one scheduled check-in window. If you need to be reachable in an emergency, we give you a contact line to share.
The Quiet Room is always available. No explanation required, and nobody will ask why.
A printed personal structure document: a concrete plan for the 30, 60 and 90 days after The Reset, plus your own sleep and recovery audit.
Tell us a little about your organisation and we'll come back to you within two working days to arrange a call.
