@caitlinmoran We do! I have started figure skating. It is now a mid-life obsession, rather than just a hobby! Maybe I repressed the need for sequins somewhere earlier in my life!
Proud to take part in @TentOrg event. @Accenture has hired many Ukrainian refugees since the start of the war and our workforce is stronger for it. Business plays a critical role in urgent times like these and hope more will join #sunflowerproject
“We only spoke about war in hushed voices, as if it were an obscenity — as if we didn’t notice the missing friends. Out loud, we made promises to the future.” Beautiful, painful article https://t.co/Tcnvi1PURa
Patagonia boss sets up trust with profits of company to invest in saving the planet. “Even public companies with good intentions are under too much pressure to create short-term gain at the expense of long-term vitality and responsibility” https://t.co/vosV866gkw
In an English style pub in France watching the Women’s Euro football final on the big screen. My daughter doesn’t realise there is anything novel about it! Bravo! #womensfootball#womenssport#goenglandwomen

At the @WorldYMCA#YMCAIgnite2022 panel on meaningful work, GenU's @KevinJWFrey calls for collective action to bend the arc of the future in favour of young people.
I'll say this once again - it would be far more logical & effective to give all teenage boys a vasectomy, only reversed when they decide to have kids, than to curtail the right of women & girls - particularly those who have been raped - to decide whether or not to become mothers.
Today we’re launching the #SunflowerProject, an initiative to accelerate the economic inclusion of Ukrainian refugee women across Europe by helping them access employment. 🌻 🤝 🇺🇦

So lovely to have uplifting conversations with Richard and Nazanin today.
They are both relentless in their pursuit of justice and raised the plight of Morad Tahbaz with me. Here I was hoping to sleep for a week…
Here’s their first family selfie! #NazaninIsFree
It's been 6 long years - and I can't believe I can FINALLY share this photo.
Nazanin is now in the air flying away from 6 years of hell in Iran.
My heart goes out to Gabriella and Richard, as her long journey back home to them gets closer by the minute.
#NazaninIsFree ❤️
We must remember - in the midst of Ukraine - that the horror in Afghanistan is accelerating not abating - and that there we have a clear answer - which is to deliver more generous humanitarian assistance generously efficiently and quickly before more people die.
