Our CEO, Julia Said OBE, is the latest guest on Deloitte's The Green Room podcast, exploring the question: What makes us feel confident in what we buy?

Joining Tom Astill, Director at Deloitte Digital, Julia discusses why trust, empathy and human connection continue to influence purchasing decisions and what businesses can learn from changing consumer behaviours.

They also explore how AI and technology are reshaping decision making, why trust remains a powerful differentiator and what businesses can do to stand out in an increasingly crowded marketplace.

🚴‍♀️ Three of our team are taking on a big challenge for a brilliant cause!

Kelly Atp Joannides, Jonny Peat and Zoe Adams will be joining a 50-strong team to cycle 50km through the New Forest as part of the CLIA 10th Anniversary Charity Bike Ride on 03 June.

The ride is raising money for the Family Holiday Charity, an incredible organisation that helps families facing difficult circumstances enjoy a much-needed break away and create special memories together 💚

Together, the riders are aiming to raise £10,000, enough to help up to 14 families experience valuable time away together.
