On Thursday 15th October 2020, WA Communications Director, Caroline Gordon, hosted a webinar exploring how the Government can balance the health of the nation with the health of the economy.
We are living through unprecedented times in which a devastating public health crisis is creating a global economic slowdown.
The Government has to make daily decisions that balance the health of the nation against the health of our economy. Political, media and public pressure is building and a difficult winter is approaching. There are no easy answers – just more questions facing every business and organisation in the UK as to how to respond, plan and communicate.
Panellists included:
- Tom Newton Dunn, Chief Political Commentator and Presenter at Times Radio
- Poppy Trowbridge, former Special Adviser to the Chancellor and WA Advisory Board Member
- Dr Jonathan Pearson-Stuttard, Vice-Chair of the Royal Society for Public Health
