To some people, an insurance policy is perhaps one of the strangest things which we will ever buy. For how many other purchases do we make in the hope of never having to use them? However, even a cover which is not a legal necessity is one of life's essentials: a 'just in case' item because none of us ever know what life may throw

Regular readers of the Broadway 'blog will recall that I wrote an article last month about the Government's intended response to the growing threat of cyber attacks on the public and private sectors. In the process of revealing more detail about the Cyber Security and Resilience Bill, which will be presented to parliament later this year, the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation, and Technology,

As the name illustrates only too well, the British Isles are surrounded by water. Whilst that has been an advantage in some respects over the course of history, it carries with it a very particular risk; namely, flooding. It is a risk which is far from abstract.

Regular readers of this 'blog may recall that almost exactly a year ago I wrote an article about the publication of a Government report detailing the extent to which cyber attacks have become a feature of daily business. The joint study by the Department for Science, Innovation Technology and the Home Office revealed that half of businesses and almost one-third of charities had acknowledged "some

Broadway is truly an equal opportunities employer. There! I've said it!

Many individuals reading this article will have visited an art gallery at some point in their lives. Even if people don't actually count themselves as art buffs, there is something awe-inspiring about viewing in person the kind of masterpieces which have transfixed the great, good, rich and powerful over the centuries.

For some, winter brings the prospect of cosy nights in, sheltering from conditions outside. However, the year's darkest season is as notable for its ability to chilll our mood as much as our fingertips.

One reason why is that a number of such large commercial organisations touch the lives of millions of people, either in terms of products or services which they offer or the employment

Opening the diary to 2025 is a wonderful opportunity for organising the year ahead.  For some clients it’s business as usual, while others plan exciting new projects, adventures, or milestones. We are often privy to all aspects of our client’s lives and see ourselves as an extension of their family or business – for us it’s personal. What matters to one client is vastly different

At this time of year, it's not just the sound of carols and jingle bells which hangs in the air but that of sniffles too. We are heading into 'flu season, a period which traditionally places more strain upon the already busy National Health Service (NHS). Even before November is done, there is plenty of evidence to suggest that the close of 2024 may be
