    Episode 124: Giving away £100m with Mark Constantine OBE, Co-founder of LUSH
    Dec 23 2024
    "I learnt there is so much kindness in the world."

    It’s the Christmas Special so we’re joined by the self-made entrepreneur responsible for £100m of gifts to good causes, Mark Constantine OBE.

    Obviously, we’re straight in to advent calendars and mutual admiration for Snickers Bars, before we delve into Mark’s early life experiences, including being made homeless at sixteen and the reasons why LUSH will always accept cash. There’s the journey from Bond Street to Bond Street, styling Anna Wintour and travelling to New York on horseback. We talk through aligning business and environmental philosophies; the tricky business of avoiding the grant-giving process; and who ensures the money ends up in the right hands. We find the entrepreneurial spirit, seek a virtuous circle and bask in the delight of recipriocation.

    “I still bleed orange¨

    This week Kenneth is flying solo on a nostalgic episode, reminiscing with former Director of Communications, Brand and Digital at Alzheimer’s Research UK.

    They get into growing up with an organisation, being in the right place at the right time in a risk-averse charity that needed to take risks to garner attention and becoming BFFs with Samuel L Jackson (yes, that one). There’s the weight of an orange and the size of Wales, connecting with your audience, pitching to the trustees, removing the jargon and learning to listen.

    “Sod it, give it a go¨

    As one of our favourite past guests, we were delighted to catch up with PR mogul, podcaster, documentary producer, author and champion of women's sport, Sue Anstiss. So much so, that Kenneth dialled in from prison. We talk hyrox and alcohol detox; sweating like a chicken; repeating the golden age; and finding the joy in play. There's writing your own introduction, the power of consistency and the importance of language - something that Lilly (aged seven) would undoubtedly appreciate.
