CEO of Folk. Mum to THE most amazing little boy. Sweet tooth. Straight talking.

[Folk @thefolkgrp]

Last week we celebrated one whole year as Folk and our partnership with the wonderful @HijinxTheatre .

In keeping with our theme of ✨main character energy ✨, we celebrated with an immersive inclusion event at @CULTVRLAB on the formidable 360 dome 🌌

[Folk @thefolkgrp]

A huge thank you to all of our guests and speakers who celebrated with us, and the lovely @MelOwenComedy for being our host for the evening. Here's a taster of the evening, stay tuned for the hero film 👀

If you were to judge the creative industry by the work that won big at Cannes Lions this year, you’d think we were super progressive. But is it all smoke and mirrors? I shared my thoughts in @thedrum here https://t.co/p9vFmwXnLg

[Sharon Flaherty @ContentPRlover]

I'm super proud of this.

[Folk @thefolkgrp]

We’re celebrating International Women’s Day by sharing women who are inspirational to us, from historical figures to modern day stars and those closest to us 💟

We’d love to hear which woman inspires you and why 👇 #IWD2023

@NigelSarbutts @wadds I'm 42 and am already getting comments. It's a massive surprise it starts so young! Ridiculous

[Sharon Flaherty @ContentPRlover]

Yes, 'older people' have sex. They don't see themselves as 'old' and don't want to be marketed to like they're dying! Hear what our inclusion consultant has to say to brands about accurate age representation. Please watch and share ;-) #ageism

[Folk @thefolkgrp]

We hate to shock you, but older people have sex… as well as needs and habits that are underrepresented on screen and in the comms world.

We spoke to The Real Folk Panel member and comms specialist @ValBod1 about the importance of age representation in today’s media.

[Sharon Flaherty @ContentPRlover]

We need brave women and MEN to push for change because one day we will all be ‘older’. #ageism

[Sharon Flaherty @ContentPRlover]

The topic of the menopause was featured in @TheDrum this week looking at how adland should support people going through it. Here’s my thoughts:

[Sharon Flaherty @ContentPRlover]

These are women who have worked so hard in their careers only to be dismissed when they get a little forgetful or anxious because of the menopause?

[Sharon Flaherty @ContentPRlover]

At what age does ageism start in PR? Here's my two-pence worth in @prweekuknews on why it's holding the industry back https://t.co/vc6u9uvXRi

[Sharon Flaherty @ContentPRlover]

Thanks to @mediashotz for their write-up about our @HijinxTheatre partnership giving much needed airtime to the issue of inclusion. https://t.co/00Khrpl6PK
