It must be the chill in the air outside, playing havoc with your skin. In this post, we will let you know: • What exfoliating do

Keeping diversity and inclusion at the heart of what your organisation has been shown to stand for can benefit almost every aspect of the business. The most financially successful companies increasingly are also the ones with the most wide-reaching diversity, equity and inclusion programmes.

Under the warm gaze of an African sun, I grew up as a typical Nigerian girl. I loved acting and making people laugh but my parents wanted me to follow a more traditional life path, so I never seriously considered pursuing that passion. However, I wasn’t sure of my true-life purpose. As I entered adulthood, I was lucky enough to lead a varied and very fulfilling career. I trained as a hair stylist before opening and running a successful hair salon. I even styled presenters for live television, w

As the world opens up again, we are refocusing our attention on the state of the planet. Earlier this month, the government released a new Procurement Policy Note (PPN) – ‘Taking Account of Carbon Reduction Plans in the procurement of major government contracts’ which calls for companies to commit to net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Businesses will now have to detail and publish their plans for carbon reduction when bidding for major government contracts of over £5 million. The new rules also

We had no idea of what was to come and yet I had already a noticed a flurry of films and TV shows set centuries ago that were riding a popularity surge. Little Women. Emma. David Copperfield. I just didn’t feel ready to write it then and I’m glad. Because it can now take a slightly new slant that still makes perfect sense. We live in an age where every piece of information can be reached at the touch

In a land blessed by glorious sunshine, a couple planted a small tree just outside of their home. Over time and with copious amounts of love and care from the couple, the tree began to grow. The branches became adorned with lush green leaves while delicate buds nudged their way through, searching for sunlight. When the warmest days arrived, the buds opened, revealing the most beautiful, dainty roses that anyone had ever seen. The air surrounding the couple’s house was filled with the roses’ swe

Soft and delicate but immensely strong; that’s almost certainly how you feel when you drape a silk garment over your shoulders and it’s also an extremely accurate description of the material itself. Silk is the strongest natural textile in the world but it’s the soft shiny texture that has placed it as one of the hottest commodities on the planet throughout history.
