We are really excited to be taking part in The Lord Mayor's Appeal on the 24th of September! ❗ ❗

City Giving Day is a simple but impactful initiative that enables City companies and employees to celebrate and showcase their philanthropic and volunteering achievements and encourage others to get involved. 🎉

The three incredible charities The Lord Mayor's Appeal are supporting are:
Place2Be - Providing emotional and therapeutic services in primary and secondary schools.
OnSide Youth Zones - Giving young people (aged 8-19 years old) in deprived areas an alternative than spending their evenings on the streets or isolated indoors.
Samaritans - Providing emotional support to anyone in emotional distress, struggling to cope, or at risk of su***de throughout the United Kingdom and Ireland.

The entire District4 – Talent Communities team will be wearing red next Tuesday in aid of raising as much money as possible! 🚀

Will you be going red too? 🔴

Happy 🥳🎊 📅 from the District4 team!

Apple 🍏 are celebrating world emoji day with a peek at the 59 new emoji’s coming the Autumn with new designs intended to bring more diversity to the virtual keyboard! 😱👏🏻

New features will include a new guide dog, an ear with a hearing aid, wheelchairs, a prosthetic arm and leg, as well as the ever-popular food, animals, activities and smiley faces categories! 🎉🤩

There is no doubt that emoji’s have changed the way we communicate… But is it unprofessional or do you think emojis lighten up LinkedIn posts and emails? 🤔💭

Comment below the last four you used as we’d love to hear them! 📢💬
