You know, for women aged 35 to 55, who often juggle demanding careers, family, and a flood of other responsibilities, NOOR by Grant Blvd offers something unique: a capsule of thoughtfully designed, sustainably sourced loungewear that provides a sense of emotional calm and personal #wellness. At a time in life when so much is asked of them, we need these women to feel replenished, down to the clothes they wear in their lives away from public gaze. And these tenacious, kind women are #women I know well- I am one. But NOOR’s impact doesn’t stop there. By employing women who have experienced profound marginalization, we’re providing fair-wage, dignified work to individuals who deserve a second chance. Each piece of NOOR loungewear is a testament to the #craftsmanship and resilience of these women, who are given the opportunity to not only work, but to heal in their own right. NOOR by Grant Blvd is more than a #luxury lifestyle brand—it’s a movement to uplift women, ALL women. This is #sustainable #design at its finest. It's luxury redefined.

🎯 Ready, Aim, Laugh: Join Us for the Ultimate Clay Pigeon Shoot! 🎯 Attention all shooting enthusiasts, amateur marksmen, and anyone who just wants to impress their friends with tales of “the one that got away” (spoiler: it’s a clay pigeon!). We are excited to announce our upcoming Clay Pigeon Shooting Event, and you won’t want to miss out! 🥳 📅 When: November 27th 📍 Where: Lady's Wood ⏰ Time: 9am-12:30 Why should you join us, you ask? Well, let’s break it down: Channel Your Inner Robin Hood: You’ll get to shoot at flying things, just like a modern-day archer, minus the tights and the medieval backstory. Networking with a Side of Gunpowder: Nothing says “let’s discuss that project” quite like a round of clays and a little friendly competition. Who knew professional networking could come with ear protection? Get Fit Without the Gym: Forget leg day—this is arm day and cardio all rolled into one! As you lift that shotgun and sprint after your shattered targets, consider it a workout you can brag about at your next Teams meeting. Stand Out From the Crowd: Because let's face it, nobody ever hosted an awkward small talk session at a clay pigeon shoot. “So, what do you do?” becomes “Did you see that last shot? It was a straight-up Picasso of clay bird blasting!” Bragging Rights: Win the coveted title of "Clay Pigeon Slayer" and take home the “Chickens Fear Me” trophy. (Okay, fine, it’s an empty coffee mug, but it will still look great on your desk.) Oh and you get breakfast, if you're not sold already that was a great final reason don't you think? So come out, aim for the sky, and unleash your inner sharpshooter without any of the skills required! Whether you’re a seasoned veteran or a total newbie, we promise a day filled with fun, laughter, and possibly a few mildly embarrassing “oops!” moments. 🎟️ RSVP Now: https://lnkd.in/e3E2BcSH (Spaces are limited, and unlike your last online order of “life-changing” fitness equipment, you actually want to be a part of this!) Don’t miss this chance to shoot your shot (and hopefully connect) in the great outdoors! Let’s make some targets tremble and some laughs happen! See you there! 🥳🥳🥳 #ClayPigeonShooting #Networking #FunAndGames #AimHigh #NotANewYearResolution #ShootForTheStars Joint event from Women in Property and British Council for Offices sponsored by the fabulous (biased I know) RED Construction Group Thanks for organising Laura Beddis!

Wow a fantastic series about the realities facing fashion design entrepreneurs now with so much great insight and advice. *Two-thirds of brands that use the wholesale channel say they have experienced late or missed payments. (Sad but not surprising) * The gold standard for a great wholesaler is a partner who offers emerging designers at least 30 per cent payment upfront to fund production costs, commits to more than one season of orders (even if they aren’t an immediate success), and strives to avoid seller returns, which put undue risk on independent labels.  (100%!) * There is an oversupply of designers and a dearth of technicians. (This is so important and several designers I know actually fund their own brands with their patternmaking skills) * Although 51 per cent of survey respondents express an interest in starting their own brand, many say they felt underprepared after graduating from fashion school. (You NEED industry experience) * The obsession with the idea of the "star designer" is doing a great disservice not just to the many graduates of design programs each year but to the industry at large. Bravo to authors Bella Webb and Maliha Shoaib - every aspiring and independent designer should read this so BIG thanks to @voguebusiness for making it available to everyone. Too much valuable industry info that students and entrepreneurs should read is behind a paywall these days. https://lnkd.in/efSwTxGs

Bicycling is more than just a mode of transportation—it’s a pathway to equity, empowerment, and community. While at the Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center at Rutgers University, Charles T. Brown, MPA, CPD conducted research on the experiences of Black and Latino women in urban cycling. This project sheds light on the unique barriers these communities face, from access to infrastructure to cultural perceptions, while highlighting opportunities to promote inclusivity and representation in active transportation. Learn more about the findings and how we’re working to ensure cycling is accessible for all: https://lnkd.in/ed5uGfXd #ActiveTransportation #EquityInCycling #RepresentationMatters #UrbanPlanning #Research
