Ever had a brilliant idea about something but done nothing about it? Well at Purpose we’re turning our ideas into reality.
Our new internal initiative ‘Purpose Works’ kicked off towards the end of last year with the entire Purpose team being invited to take part in our first ever Innovation Workout.
