Choosing the correct HTML elements rather than vomiting a "div" or belching out a "span" can greatly enhance the end user’s experience, with no fragile extra code to write and maintain.

In the UK, mental ill-health is the leading cause of sickness absence, costing employers approximately £2.4 billion each year with 70 million workdays lost. Despite this crisis, mental health and wellbeing programmes in the workplace are often determined by anecdotal evidence rather than research and are dependent on each individual company’s commitment to their staff.
It’s now more than ever that we need robust, research-led programmes and interventions to identify the key elements of mentally healthy workplaces in order to build back stronger for the future.

Lea Milligan, CEO of MQ: Mental Health Research, the UK’s leading mental health research charity, will talk about the launch of MQ’s Workplace Mental Health Challenge Fund and share how the programme hopes to both guide employers on how to most effectively track and monitor the mental health of their workforce, and identify key factors to create working environments that enable staff to thrive

"The humid air enveloped them, while they laid on their backs staring up at the blanket of stars.”
As you read that, what was your reaction?

An asthmatic may have instinctively coughed. Another person may have fanned themselves. Maybe you skimmed the sentence altogether, scrolling beyond to find a subject more appealing to you than this narrative. In any case, your brain went into motion, in a different way than what you might have originally expected.

In this talk, Bianca Sias, Enterprise Transformation Coach at JP Morgan will discuss the importance of storytelling and how you can use it to help shift the lens on culture
