14 days to go until ticket sales close.



If you've been meaning to book your ticket but haven't got round to it yet, consider this your reminder.

We often hear from people after the event that they didn't realise the evening was open to everyone, not just finalists and sponsors.

In reality, awards night is a chance to celebrate local success, make new connections and enjoy a fantastic evening with hundreds of others from across the South West business community.

With ticket sales closing on 19th June, now's a great time to get your place secured.

💭 Are generational differences really the challenge we think they are?
That was the question at the heart of our recent Working in Multigenerational Organisations event.

👥 Four generations round the tables.
💡 Countless perspectives.
🧩 Stereotypes challenged
🤝 One shared goal.

The round taable discussions sparked some fascinating conversations about communication, collaboration, talent, leadership, assumptions and the future of work. One message came through loud and clear: people don’t fit neatly into labels. The conversation wasn’t about managing different generations, but about understanding people, sharing knowledge and creating workplaces where everyone can thrive.

It's Global Running Day 👟

Over the years, Let's Talk Well has been supported by an incredible community of runners.

Today, we're celebrating one truly inspiring runner - Kerry!

Kerry is taking on the Pegasus Slam - an extraordinary challenge of 6 ultramarathons between April and September, covering 210 miles and over 23,000ft of elevation!

And she's doing it all to raise vital funds for children and young people across Gloucestershire.

Even better? Your support goes twice as far.
For the next 8 weeks, our friends at Suntory are match-funding every £1 donated, doubling every gift up to £10,000. Together, we hope to raise an incredible £20,000 to support children and young people aged 9-25 years in Gloucestershire with mental health challenges.

A huge thank you to Kerry for choosing to take on this challenge for Let's Talk Well - we're so grateful for your determination, commitment, and passion! We're cheering you all the way!

Support Kerry today (and double your impact), visit https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/global-running-day

Kerry's story:
In 2022 I ran my first ultramarathons while fundraising for Let’s Talk Well and discovered how much long‑distance running supports my mental health. This year I’m taking on the Pegasus Slam: six ultramarathons from April to September, totalling 210 miles and over 23,000ft of elevation.

It’s a huge physical and mental challenge, and one I’ve hesitated over in the past because of the commitment required. But after some powerful reminders about the value of time - and a lot of training - I’m ready for a year shaped by running.

I’m combining this challenge with a cause I care deeply about: Let’s Talk Well is a Gloucestershire based charity which aims to ensure every young person has someone to talk to. Knowing that donations will help Let's Talk Well support children, young people and families across Gloucestershire will fuel me through every mile and every finish line.
