104/ KAREN TYRELL, DRINKAWARE
EPISODE 104
This week we’re joined by the CEO of Drinkaware to talk through her career - from cell rooms to the boardroom. We get into society’s complicated relationship with alcohol and managing the organisation’s relationship with big business.
We kick off this week by revealing the fastest parkruns in the country, braving outdoor swimming and diving into a category A prison straight out of university. Karen shares the stories from the front line which led to a passion for supporting people. We find out what kind of chief executive she is, the importance of a strong foundation and how she plans to achieve massive societal change. James makes an unsuccessful pitch to ban tequila, Karen talks seatbelts and Kenneth wants to know how to remain independent.
Pour yourself a low-alcohol beer, if they haven’t already sold out, and hear how Drinkaware can improve the school run.
