Research shows that optimistic and resilient people are happier, healthier and live longer. People with good wellbeing are also better equipped to adapt to change, complexity and adversity and build more productive relationships. It’s clear that when we feel good, we do better!

These proven principles of positive psychology form the foundations of everything we do at Camp Quality. To support our staff and volunteers to be consistently resilient and optimistic, we collaborated with world-leading psychologists and consultants to create a science-based wellbeing program known as ORANGES.

The ORANGES program was originally delivered as engaging 2-day workshops based on the science of positive psychology, emotional intelligence and neuroscience, linked to academic research from the world’s leading universities such as Harvard, Stanford, Pennsylvania, Melbourne and Oxford. It offered measurable outcomes and evidence-informed practical tools that could be immediately implemented to improve wellbeing, collaboration and performance.

The ORANGES program was so effective, that in 2017 we decided to share it with our partners and other organisations through the establishment of our social enterprise, The Oranges Toolkit.

The Oranges Toolkit is now an award-winning, certified social enterprise that offers a wide range of science-based, in-person and online workplace wellbeing solutions, including:

  • Strategic consultation and wellbeing audits
  • Wellbeing workshops (In person or online)
  • A self-directed e-learning program
  • Targeted webinar
  • Events and keynotes
  • Leadership and coaching programs
  • Behaviour change tools (such as a micro-learning app series)

“The Oranges Toolkit webinars have had a major impact on all of our employees who took part. They were interactive, the content was relevant and based on the latest science, plus we had an engaging playbook – all these factors helped to set the webinars apart from any others that we had run. Whilst we were all taking part remotely, the webinars made us feel that we were all together – the positivity, care and support was resonating from our screens!”
