Swapped my windowless home office for a week of sun and sea in Brighton last week, to head to 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽! ☀️

I've saved the full rundown of everything I got up to for LinkedIn, but the vibe overall is that my heart is full, and there are still so many people doing amazing things in / for Games 💖

What a wonderfully busy and heartwarming 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽:𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗼𝗻! ☀️

It was a fantastic few days of seaside meetings, hosting our 𝗖𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗲 & 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘁 event and 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽® 𝗟𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵 with Ben Board from 𝗘𝗽𝗶𝗰 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀, and many a chat about sustainable Leadership.

Thanks to all who helped make this one great! ❤️
