HOW A WELLNESS DAY RUNS
We bring the Abby stations and run the screening.
Already have a nurse, a provider or a scheme day? They carry on around it. Your people spend about three minutes each, and you get a report on the health of your team.
STEP 1
Before
We agree the date, the headcount and the place, and send you a quote for the day. You send one email to staff. No forms, no sign up.
STEP 2
On the day
Up to 20 people an hour per Abby station. No needles, no white coats. Each person gets their results and next steps on WhatsApp before they are back at their desk.
STEP 3
After
Within three working days you get an anonymised report on your team. Nothing that identifies a person.
Best for head offices, plants, campuses and conferences where the queue is the problem. Smaller team, or staff spread across many sites? Tell us. We can run an event week across sites, or fit Abby into a day you already run.
ALREADY HAVE A PROVIDER OR A SCHEME DAY?
Keep your provider. Add Abby.
If your scheme already runs a wellness day for you, keep it. Abby is a paid event day that adds what that day does not. Most wellness days lose people at the queue. Abby takes the queue away, and adds a record that lasts past the day.

Wellness days in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and beyond.
We bring the Abby stations to your office, plant or venue, in most places in South Africa.
GAUTENG AND LIMPOPO
Johannesburg, Pretoria and Polokwane
And the rest of both provinces. Our base is in Edenvale.
WESTERN AND EASTERN CAPE
Cape Town, Gqeberha and East London
And the rest of both provinces. Gqeberha is the city many still call Port Elizabeth.
KZN, FREE STATE AND MPUMALANGA

Chosen by employers and gyms
Tell us the date, the headcount and the place.
We run wellness days in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban, Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) and most places in South Africa, and in Gaborone and Windhoek. Abby can also run at a wellness day your scheme funds. We quote per event day and aim to come back within one working day. Rather talk? Call 011 830 1042.
WHO SEES WHAT
Their results stay theirs.
STEP 1
They agree first
Consent before every check. The consent screen names who is paying. Nobody is screened who does not want to be.
STEP 2
Their phone, their language
Results and next steps go to each person’s own WhatsApp, in most South African languages, including English, Afrikaans, isiZulu, isiXhosa and Sesotho.
STEP 3
Your report, no names
You get shares, never names. Nothing in the report identifies a person.
Copy this into your staff email: Your results go to your own phone. HR gets numbers, never names.

QUESTIONS HR ASKS
Before you ask your manager.
SCHEME DAY
Our medical scheme already runs a wellness day at no cost to us. Why add Abby? +
Keep it. Abby is a paid event day, and here is what it adds: the Abby station takes the queue, so more people get checked in less time, including staff who are not on the scheme. Everyone gets their results on WhatsApp, and you get an anonymised report within three working days. If the scheme or an insurer funds the day, tell us and we check what fits.
BLOODS AND EXTRAS
We want bloods, HIV testing and extras, not only a health check. +
With a nurse on site we also do finger prick glucose and cholesterol, and HIV testing. We can arrange the nurse, or work with yours. We can bring massage therapists too. For anything else, we run alongside the provider you already use.
PRIVACY
Who sees the results? +
Each person sees their own results, on their own WhatsApp. Where a person has agreed, a flagged result also alerts the nurse. Your report shows shares, never names.
COST AND SIZE
What does it cost, and is our team big enough? +
We quote per event day. Tell us the date, the headcount and the place and we aim to come back within one working day. Smaller team, or many sites? Tell us. We can run an event week across sites, or fit Abby into a day you already run.
TRY FIRST
Can we try it before we book? +
Yes. Do a check at a public Abby station in Johannesburg, Cape Town or Durban, or ask us for a demo.
TURNOUT
Will our staff turn up? +
People take part when it is quick. 540 staff screened in one week at one bank head office, with no marketing. A dashboard shows screenings as they happen, so you know the turnout before lunch.
