On #WorldConsumerRightsDay I've written an article for #ISO about the role of #CPIN & #COPOLCO in shaping standards that protect consumers' rights. From #sustainability to #inclusion, it's vital that consumer interests are championed and heard. #WCRD23 bit.ly/3ld0tCL

Happy to be back in Brussels representing UK consumers at ANEC’s 34th #GeneralAssembly. 🇪🇺

Please consider donating, if you can, to help @theCALMzone continue its amazing work to support people through difficult times & prevent #suicide.
For @thetimes xmas appeal, I've written about Calm, a charity that works to prevent suicide
Last year, nearly 6,000 people killed themselves in Britain yet the charity doesn't even have the resources to answer half the calls to its helpline
