On Thursday 25th November, we hosted a Club breakfast with founder of charity, Alike, Brad Gudger, at M Restaurant Victoria. After years of working with groups and charities, and being inspired by the peer support he experienced, Brad wanted to find a way to use the technology around us to combat loneliness, specifically for people with cancer. Alike is a first of its kind organisation, combining not-for-profit passion for change with the ingenuity and innovation of a tech start-up. It creates an opportunity to build friendships and be part of a community that doesn’t just support, but understands.
