The Social Sanctuary

As a digital marketing professional, I spend much of my time online. The internet provides plenty of fantastic opportunities for us all, but it can also be draining. With so much noise, finding peace and time to reflect is more essential than ever before. Through inspirational conversations with key individuals, The Social Sanctuary takes a closer look at important topics across the digital space, covering everything from cyberbullying to online influencers, how to get young people into work and the importance of mental health. The Social Sanctuary provides a break from the hustle and bustle of online life, giving us all a space to discuss the matters which really matter in the hectic modern world.
