Help Flagship net support for Malaria No More

Flagship Consulting has long had a link with the malaria world through its work with Sumitomo Chemical, manufacturer of the life-saving Olyset mosquito net. We have had first hand experience of the problems that malaria causes, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa where children under five and pregnant mothers are most vulnerable; and we also know how easily it can be prevented by people sleeping under long-lasting insecticide-treated mosquito nets such as the Olyset Net. And so we are delighted to support Malaria No More by running the adidas Women’s 5K Challenge on September 11th in Hyde Park. Jackie Murphy, Casey Mead and Laetitia Redbond are going to run for Flagship under a mosquito net, probably being chased by Malaria No More’s Executive Director, Sarah Kline, who has promised to run as Mozzy Man.

Jackie Murphy, Managing Director said, “This is a cause that is close to my heart and three years ago I climbed Kilimanjaro to raise enough money to equip a third of Tanzania’s hospitals with mosquito nets. I know a 5km run is less of a challenge but it is no less of a cause as there are still too many expectant mothers who are dying unnecessarily of malaria. Please support our Team Flagship in its fund-raising activity for Malaria No More and visit our JustGiving website. Many thanks for your support.”

Pressure Chamber

  • Guest post: The Last Laugh: Women and Work

    I work for a company (Flagship’s US partner, Peppercom) that is known as much for its hard work as it is for its hard play. From Kangoo lessons at work to relentless e-mail banter to jovial pranks (not sure if co-founder Ed Moed, who was photo shopped onto David Beckham’s underwear ad, would call his

  • Should we be forced to hire British?

    Imagine! You are at the race course, the pressure is on, the horses are in the ring and the ground is in top form. Now it is up to you. Based on all the information you have – performance, track record, appearance, training and attitude – you have to choose which one you think will

  • Snap to it with Instagram

    Suddenly, everyone’s a photographer.  Retro inspired shots of door handles and street scenes litter my twitter, and Facebook’s just a mélange of sepia snaps.  Instagram fever is sweeping the nation, as users take and share photos with their smart phone, using filters to add vintage effects. Originally exclusive to iPhone users, the Android app launched

  • #craphashtags

    Only three years ago the hash sign suffered a meagre existence.  Its purpose unknown to the upcoming generations, hash’s humble façade was seen only as part of an emoticon or on a sheet of music. And then came Twitter. Twitter did for the hash sign what Charlie Sheen did for addiction. Hash (in the tag,

  • Conversation – a dying art?

    Recently I have been prompted to reflect on the meaning of ‘conversation’ in this digital world, when everyone seems glued to their smart phones and tablets. An example is a recent ‘conversation’ (yes, we did converse face-to-face) with my daughter where I asked if she had spoken to a friend; she responded saying yes, they
