Accidental moments of togetherness (Part 1)

Home is a human right. Last year over five million people turned to Shelter for advice. New research shows at least 354,000 people in England, including 161,500 children, will spend Christmas without a home (stats from Dec 2024).

In this conversation, Bex shares her personal journey, reflecting on how her experiences of moving homes and becoming a mother have shaped her identity and career in advertising. She discusses the emotional connection to home and the challenges she faced as a single mother working in a demanding industry.
