Last Friday a group of local business people gathered at Gee’s Restaurant for the second Sobell House Business Breakfast.

We had incredible hospitality from our friends at Gee’s and after a wonderful breakfast we were privileged to hear from our guest speaker Alan Rusbridger. As Editor of the Guardian for twenty years Alan has been at the centre of many news stories, always with a steely determination to find the truth. He based his talk on his latest book, Breaking News: the Remaking of Journalism and Why It Matters Now.

Before Alan spoke the room fell silent as we listened to a truly inspirational talk from Murielle Hutchings, a Sobell House Ambassador, speaking very movingly about the care we gave her late husband Robin.

Thanks to Gee’s, Alan, Murielle and the many local businesses who attended and are so supportive of our work.
