A carer's journey across 3 @carefreespace.bsky.social breaks: Break 1: Pot noodles alone in the hotel room. Break 2: Bought food at a market. Sat outside. Break 3: Ate alone in a restaurant like it was nothing. That's not a hotel stay. That's someone rebuilding confidence to exist in the world ❤️
Spoke at @thirdsector.co.uk's Pounds & Purpose on AI in charities with @zoeamar.bsky.social. The thing that surprised me? How many people feel guilty using AI at work. We serve 46,000 carers with 8 people. AI isn't replacing jobs, it's why we still exist... Happy to chat. #CharityTech #AIForGood
Our CEO was on BBC World Service talking about who cares for the carers. The moment that hit me hardest was when Hannah (unpaid carer since 16) said she'd forgotten how to have fun 💔 Our @carefreespace.bsky.social breaks change that. bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3ct6xyy #UnpaidCarers #SocialImpact

I've been reflecting deeply on digital minimalism - balancing my role as a CTO in tech-for-good, with my personal journey towards simpler, more intentional tech use. Here's why I'm swapping my iPhone for something slower, simpler, and more aligned with my values: www.linkedin.com/pulse/from-e...
