Presentation: Looking after our well-being
\n<\/strong>Facing the Covid-19 pandemic has been one of the most unsettling challenges many of us will face in our life. Whilst the pandemic has had a negative effect on so many aspects of our lives, there have been some positives to come from it. A huge positive from the national pandemic is that we now not only realise, but also appreciate how important it is to look after our own wellbeing on a regular basis \u2013 whether this be taking a day to relax and to pursue your favourite pastime, (virtually) socialising with friends or giving back to the community and helping those less fortunate in the current climate.<\/p>\n

Although the pandemic will not last forever, the importance of looking after our well-being will and is something we\u00a0must all continue to do when the 2020 pandemic\u00a0becomes a distant memory.<\/p>\n

After finishing university and then travelling for 9 months Paul started his career in print at Watmoughs Financial Print based in Bradford in 1995, as a sales rep, before changing role to the Production Planner and ultimately the Production manager, by which time the company was known as Polestar and based in Leeds.\u00a0 The division of Polestar that he worked for, specialised in sheet fed print.\u00a0 The sheet fed division in Leeds was closed in 2004, so he moved to Loxleys printers in Sheffield as the Production Planner. After 9 months at Loxleys an opportunity came up to be the Print Manager at Sheffield Hallam University where Paul has led a team for 15 years.<\/p>\n

‘Lightning talk’\u00a0\u2013 Getting creative in a crisis
\n<\/strong>Paul\u2019s presentation\u00a0will cover how his team managed to ensure that the Print Department at Sheffield Hallam University was an integral part of the plans to reopen the campus after the first lockdown. It will include the challenges they faced and how they overcame them to get to a situation where they printed almost 50,000 social distancing related signs.<\/em><\/p>\n
