We're participating in Spin for Smart Works, a week-long cycling challenge where our team of five, Spin and Tonic, is collectively cycling 500 miles (the equivalent distance on National Cycling Route 5 between Brighton and Edinburgh!), either on a road bike, gym bike or in a spin class. Now that is a long way, wouldn’t you agree?!

This is pedalling for a purpose- to allow Smart Works to continue delivering their life-changing service and help more women with the confidence, self-belief and the practical tools they require to succeed at interviews and start a new chapter of their life. With your support we can help them expand in these areas and open in new ones. For more information, visit www.smartworks.org.uk

This is all in aid of International Women’s Day (March 8), celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity. Let's build a gender-balanced world. Everyone has a part to play - all the time, everywhere. The race is on for the gender-balanced boardroom, a gender-balanced government, gender-balanced media coverage, a gender-balance of employees, more gender-balance in wealth, gender-balanced sports coverage... Gender balance is
essential for economies and communities to thrive.

Balance drives a better working world. Let's all help create a #BalanceforBetter.
