For employers & health insurers
Your highest-cost health group, finally supported between appointments.

The challenge
Long-term conditions are your biggest workforce health cost. And the gap between appointments is where the damage happens.
Clinical appointments treat episodes. Flittle addresses the other 8,700 hours a year — building the self-management, confidence, and peer connection that reduce costs and keep people at work.
1 in 3
employees live with at least one long-term health condition
LTC employees account for a disproportionate share of sick days, presenteeism, and health insurance claims — often because they lack adequate ongoing support.
£28.5bn
lost annually to LTC-related absence and presenteeism in UK workplaces
The bulk of this cost is invisible: employees showing up but underperforming due to fatigue, pain, or anxiety about their condition.
74%
of employees with LTCs say they feel unsupported between appointments
EAPs and one-off wellness programmes rarely address the persistent, lived reality of managing a long-term condition day to day.
How Flittle helps
Six measurable ways Flittle moves your health spend in the right direction.
Not a wellness perk. A structured intervention with tracked outcomes, built specifically for the employees who cost the most and benefit the least from generic wellbeing programmes.
Reduced unplanned absence
Members who feel supported and connected manage their conditions more effectively — leading to fewer reactive sick days and GP-triggered absences.
→ 23% fewer unplanned absence days in pilot
Better presenteeism scores
Chronic pain, fatigue, and anxiety are the drivers of presenteeism. Peer circles build coping skills and practical strategies that improve daily functioning at work.
→ 63% of members report improved productivity
Stronger mental health
Isolation is a core driver of poor mental health in LTC employees. Flittle's matched circles directly reduce loneliness — measured via UCLA Loneliness Scale at 90 days.
→ 4 in 5 members see improved UCLA scores
Improved retention
Employees who feel genuinely supported are significantly less likely to leave. Flittle gives your LTC cohort a reason to stay — and a story to tell in exit interviews.
→ Retention improves across LTC cohorts
Fast, frictionless deployment
No IT integration required. Employees enrol via a link in your benefits portal, an email invite, or your HR platform. Live across your workforce in six weeks.
→ 6 weeks from contract to enrolled employees
Board-ready outcome data
WEMWBS wellbeing scores, absence frequency trends, and productivity self-ratings — delivered quarterly. The exact data your CFO and board need to see.
→ Quarterly ROI report to your People team

For health insurers
Reduce LTC claims. Improve risk data. Stand out in the market.
Flittle integrates into your health insurance product as a clinically governed peer support benefit for policyholders with long-term conditions — reducing claims while generating the outcome data your actuaries need.
Reduce claims from your highest-risk cohort
LTC policyholders generate disproportionate claims. Flittle's peer circles improve self-management and reduce reactive care-seeking — directly lowering your claims frequency.
A clinically governed, NHS-aligned intervention
Not a wellness app. Flittle operates with full clinical governance, crisis escalation pathways, and NHS DSPT-aligned data standards — credible enough for your underwriting team.
Outcome data for risk assessment
WEMWBS scores, UCLA Loneliness Scale results, and claims frequency data feed directly into your actuary's risk model — making renewal pricing more accurate.
White-label and co-branded options
Flittle can be offered as a named benefit within your health insurance product, with your branding and enrolment flow — a differentiator in a crowded market.
Testimonials
From HR and wellbeing leaders
Our long-term condition cohort showed a 23% reduction in unplanned absence over six months. The ROI case writes itself.
Priya Sharma
Head of People & Wellbeing · Fortis Group
We'd tried EAPs, apps, webinars. Nothing moved the dial on absence. Flittle did — because it gives people something they actually use week after week.
Marcus Reid
Director of People · Lloyds Banking Group
The quarterly outcomes report is exactly what our board wanted: WEMWBS scores, absence trends, and a clear cost narrative. It made the renewal conversation very easy.
