In this blog, the researchers share what the children told them - they aren’t passive consumers: they get marketing, branding & peer pressure, yet energy drinks remain part of their culture. Stronger policy, better education & youth input are key. ⬇️

The findings are both revealing.
🔍 Most of our participants reported consuming energy drinks.
🧠 Their choices were shaped by taste, image, peer influence—and a market that knows exactly how to speak to them. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....

My hero - #MotherPukka (aka Anna Whitehouse) - has championed flexible working (#FlexAppeal) and part time working.

The tide is shifting and it is becoming normal to work part-time. Today is a hurray for the part-time workers, happy #PartTimeWorks day!

Before covid I was nominated and acknowledged within the Timewise Part-time Power 50*** and then contributed to Belinda Morgan's book alongside my part-time colleague Dr Helen Moore (you can also read a @fuseonline.bsky.social Blog about this).

Are there things I can't do/ attend because of working part-time - yes!
However despite this, it makes me a better at my job, is good for me and my family.
