It's been a busy few months for our current School Leavers participants, who are about to embark on the third leg of their 18-month programme. Most recently, they presented key learnings of their experience so far, covering everything from transferable skills they've picked up, to career aspirations, to growth opportunities for the business they've identified.

We welcomed an extraordinary little girl to the Disney Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique recently. Princess Eleanor was diagnosed with Pilocytic Astrocytoma and is severely sight impaired. We spoke to Debi, her Fairy Godmother for the day, who made her feel extra special: “Eleanor is a truly wonderful child; I’m honoured to have shared this with her. Since the experience is so visual, I wanted to make it different for her, making sure that she could touch and feel absolutely everything. It was magical – she’s so lovely and brave.” Thanks to Eleanor’s parents who kindly allowed us to share this photo.
We all lead demanding lives so we often forget to take care of our bodies’ needs. We asked our Corporate Health Specialist Susanne for some top tips on how to maintain our minds and bodies balanced at work: “An integral part of this is keeping a positive mind-set. We lead Positive Thinking Workshops for all employees, which are great sessions to unwind and focus the mind. We also recommend taking regular breaks, which can boost your mood, concentration and productivity. Eating a varied diet of veggies, fruit and whole grains can also help feed your mind and body.”
