The Spirit Level – Why Equality is Better for Everyone by Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett
‘If Britain became as equal as the four most equitable societies in the world, levels of trust might be expected to be two thirds as high, mental illness might be more than halved, everyone would get an additional year of life, teenage birth rates could fall to one third of what they are now, homicide rates could fall by 7.5 %, everyone could get the equivalent of almost seven weeks extra holiday a year, and the government could be closing prisons all over the country.’
This book has been a significant source of inspiration for CALM – and appropriate for CALMfest month with the theme of Community!
Read this to learn more about:
- why we do better when we’re equal
- how material success has led us to social failure
- new ideas to build a better world together for 1% CALMer

tiny habits
In effective workplace culture that believes that to do well, you need to be well, it’s not enough to have intermittent wellbeing interventions and activities
growth mindset
Recognition of the intrinsic link between productivity and wellbeing needs to sit at the heart of culture and mindset, not simply manifest as a lunchtime yoga session or a website with a helpline number
support team
It’s about considering the best way to create and deliver sustainable change through small steps and including people along the way giving people full permission to experiment and fail fast, championing kindness and care to develop powerful support teams for truly positive, holistic business and people outcomes
