Wybitne sportowczynie i artystki, odważne żołnierki, które udając mężczyzn, ruszały na front, a także niezłomne dziennikarki i reportażystki, które walczyły o równość - to Bohaterki #Herstory. Ich inspirujące herstorie będziecie mogli lepiej poznać, odwiedzając Muzeum Łazienki Królewskie. Przez cały listopad odbywać się tam będzie wystawa plenerowa poświęcona tym wybitnym Polkom.   📍 #PoznajJejHistorie w przestrzeni Galerii Plenerowej od ul. Agrykola (Al. Chińska).

Fostering a culture of philanthropy and giving in the workplace, our Give as Your Earn benefit, available to all employees, has won an award. The Gold Award is a symbol of excellence and is awarded to employers who have succeeded in generating sustainable income sources for UK charities through Payroll Giving. Donating our time is equally important to us. Our staff in London has regularly volunteered for the Upper Room, our charity partner, in various initiatives to raise funds, donate goods, and give their time. By the end of the year, we have: • Helped serve 976 meals to guests at the Upper Room; • Ran the Royal Parks Half Marathon, raising the target needed, which was then later matched by the company; • Organised a bake sale at our London office, with proceeds directly supporting The Upper Room’s programmes; • Contributed to the Harvest Appeal, where colleagues gathered essential items for those in need. These included not only food but also non-perishables such as clothing and toiletries; • Donating unused merchandise and IT equipment, with our marketing and IT teams pitching in to make a difference; • Help support their Christmas initiatives. Thank you to our staff and The Upper Room. Making a difference one step at a time. https://lnkd.in/e_E5DTUy

Last week, Kelli Peter took part in the judging panel for the Global Entertainment Marketing Academy (G.E.M.A.) Awards! Reflecting on the experience, Kelli shared, “The G.E.M.A. Awards are a testament to the creative and strategic brilliance involved in shaping how audiences experience entertainment. It was inspiring to recognise work that not only promotes content but creates lasting connections.” These awards highlight the innovation and cultural touchpoints that make entertainment campaigns impactful, which is aligned with Hearst Networks EMEA’s mission to foster inclusive and resonant storytelling. #LoveWhatYouDo  #GEMA

Jest nam niezmiernie miło poinformować, że HISTORY Channel zostało nominowane do nagrody BohaterON - włącz historię 2024 za projekt #Herstory.   Nagroda BohaterONy im. Powstańców Warszawskich przyznawana jest osobom i instytucjom, które angażują się w promowanie wiedzy o historii Polski XX wieku oraz w edukację historyczno-patriotyczną. Poprzez swoje działania pokazują, czym jest współczesny patriotyzm oraz wcielają w życie wartości, jakimi kierowali się Powstańcy Warszawscy.   Historia to nie tylko wielkie bitwy i męscy przywódcy, ale również kobiety, których działania nierzadko miały kluczowy wpływ na losy narodów i świata. O tym m.in. jest projekt Herstory, w którym przedstawiamy kobiece postaci, dotąd niedoceniane lub nieobecne w oficjalnych annałach historii.   👉 Głosować można do 31 października na stronie i będzie nam niezmiernie miło, jeśli oddacie na nas swój głos: https://tiny.pl/1s96hbmf
