So, it seems there will be an announcement tomorrow morning on whether the Energy Secretary Chris Huhne will be prosecuted. This bring to an end months of speculation over allegations that Huhne asked his former wife to take speeding points on his behalf.

It’s a bit like when you are a buying a car, you see car ads everywhere.  I keep seeing new developments of our ‘ones to watch’. There is the fascinating Carrotmob, which uses collective spending power to make companies behave more sustainably.

So we near the end of the first month of 2012 – WELL DONE US. Except that Italian captain. And Tom Watson’s intern.

Today marks Six Months to Go until the London 2012 Olympic & Paralympic Games begin.

My second daughter Niamh  is 7 months old today.

It’s fair to say that I subscribe to the concept of the second child multiplier-effect… in other words 1+1 does not + 2… it feels many times harder than that!

Welcome to the new blog from the CR + Sustainability team in London. We thought about giving you our predictions for the year, but with so many lists out there, you are probably sick of them already.  When we were discussing it, we kept coming back to five areas that fascinated us and we wanted to watch develop in 2012.

Last week, H+K Strategies held its first D2 event of the year which was also our first sector-specific D2 for the healthcare sector.  Demystifying digital in the healthcare sector provided a wealth of interesting and insightful tips for healthcare communicators to use in the future.

Tomorrow,  H+K Healthcare takes centre stage in Soho Square, with H+K Strategies‘ first-ever sector-specific Demystifying Digital (#HKD2).  With a formidable list of participants and speakers from major platforms as well as industry leaders from the public and private sector, the event is poised to make a real difference to our understanding of what’s possible and where we should be heading with healthcare digital communications this year. 

New Year, everyone (I feel that it’s inappropriate to bother with the ‘happy’ charade after nearly two weeks of workaday tedium). Well, it’s been a while. HOW THINGS HAVE CHANGED!

I’ve been enjoying the entertaining farewells to 2011. Videos, memes, and pretty much anything digital.
