Telecel Ghana ended its annual Care and Wellbeing Month on a high note with a day of team bonding, friendly interdepartmental competitions and exercise dubbed ‘Fusion’. The event took place at the Burma Camp Sports Complex, drawing staff from across the business to focus on physical, mental and social wellbeing.
Under the broader Care Month agenda, Telecel promotes work‑life balance, mental health awareness, preventive healthcare and community support. This year’s programme featured customer visits, wellness webinars, fitness challenges, counselling sessions and volunteering, culminating in Fusion.
Activities spanned a 5‑kilometre walk, aerobics, relay races, board games, tug‑of‑peace and musical chairs. Teams vied for trophies and bragging rights while building camaraderie and supporting their wellbeing.
Rachael Appenteng, Director of Human Resources, said, “At Telecel, we believe that connectivity starts from within. When our people are healthy, connected and engaged, they deliver exceptional experiences to our customers. Fusion is our way of celebrating our people, strengthening our One‑Team culture and reminding everyone that wellbeing is not a perk; it’s a priority.”
Cynthia Akafia, Regulatory and Compliance Manager, added, “As a first‑timer to the Telecel Fusion, I could not believe we could shut the office down for a day of fitness and wellbeing. The walk was very refreshing for me; I had the opportunity to bond better with my teammates, seeing faces I hardly engage with in my course of duty.”
The day closed with an awards ceremony recognising winning teams and outstanding spirit, accompanied by music, refreshments and networking. Telecel Ghana remains committed to employee wellbeing, engagement and a culture of care as it strives to be an employer of choice in Ghana.
