About me
Hey legends, my name is Brad! I’m the founder of Alike, a charity created to combat loneliness and isolation amongst people diagnosed with cancer.
I’m really passionate about amplifying voices, power of community and reducing inequality 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

Projects
- Alike at the JubileeI was asked by the BBC to speak about Alike and the Queen's Commonwealth Trust during live coverage of the Platinum Jubilee Pageant. The Queen's Commonwealth Trust supports charities, businesses and initiatives founded by young people to help them transform their communities. It was a fantastic opportunity to speak about Alike, and tell more people about our work!
- Alike x Soho Works: World Cancer Day panel eventTo mark World Cancer Day, Alike hosted a panel event at 180 Works to discuss tech for good, mission driven enterprises and community. On the panel was Pip Jamieson, Founder of The Dots, Eshita Kabra, Founder and CEO of ByRotation and Zainab Garba-Sani, Innovation Manager for NHS England. It was such a privilege to sit and listen to these extraordinary women. I really valued their advice, guidance, and insight on how technology can be used as a force for good.
- The Prime Minister's Point of Light Award for AlikeA letter very exciting letter arrived at 180 Strand today! Back in November I was given a Point of Light Award from the Prime Minister's Office for my work combating loneliness and isolation caused by cancer. It takes a village to make an idea a reality. It may be my name on the letter, but I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, and again: Alike wouldn’t be recognised in this way if it wasn’t for a team of dedicated, selfless and generous people ��
