Filmmaker Yusuf, and Jacob the Director of Practice and Programme Development, demonstrate the proactive ways in which the charity is responding to the Coronavirus pandemic. Please see trailer below. Full video coming soon …

​We have almost completed the design of our interactive online resource to support our clients & stakeholders during the C-19 Crisis and to share positive practice for rebuilding as we move toward better times.
 
The MSB Journal, to be launched next week, is centred around the themes emerging from our recent ‘Supporting You’ survey. We have formed Four Pillars of Achievement: Compassion, Contact, Commerce & Coping.
 
Our profound thanks to all those who have contributed to date – going forward we strongly believe that the MSB Journal will provide a space for us all to capitalise together in these challenging times.
 
We would particularly like to thank Murray Gough and his colleagues at MGi London who produced the video and provided excellent creative support throughout.
 
Over the coming weeks, the MSB team, together with invited industry leaders, will be supporting you with articles, interviews, guidance and case studies and we will be inviting you to contribute your ideas & experiences and be part of the conversation.
 
In the meantime, we hope you enjoy the video!
 
With very best wishes,
 
​Don Porter CBE & Brian Hamill, Joint Managing Directors
