A great piece @nytimes on loneliness in a hyper-connected world…and looking at the work @HelloTogetherCo and my brilliant friend @AprilBrighton are doing in Brighton to make people feel closer together.
We've been featured in the @nytimes in an opinion piece by journalist @NickKristof. The series highlights the loneliness epidemic in working-class America, and looks at how organisations in Britain, including Together Co, are tackling it 👉nyti.ms/48u65fx #Loneliness

I'm writing for @thetimes @raconteur on how businesses can build relationships with their suppliers built on mutual trust. What does a healthy biz/supplier dynamic look like? Any biz's, or business psychologists, who can speak on how to improve these relationships? #journorequest
