Managing your mental health in the workplace is something we wouldn’t have talked about much a few years ago. But things have changed. Society for one. But the COVID pandemic brought work into our homes for many people - and worlds inevitably collided. One person who has seen the effect of this on not just himself but others is Lee Rogers who runs TalkTalk's mental wellbeing network. He's seen the sharp end of mental ill health himself - and is the guest on this week's episode of walking

Steve Johnson started losing his sight as a very young man, and now he’s lost almost all of it. However, he works at TalkTalk, on highly detailed projects, marshalling and organising huge amounts of information, using excel and lots of different bits of kit. He’s also a skier and fitter than the vast majority of the rest of us. Someone to learn from and be inspired by. Presented by Dominic Laurie.

In a competitive world, TalkTalk needs the best talent available. That means getting access to potentially great candidates wherever they may be. And holding on to them once they join. Given women are historically underrepresented in the world of tech and telecoms, that’s an opportunity for TalkTalk to hire exceptional talent. That job falls to Lisa Adkin, inclusion lead at TalkTalk, and Darragh Lee, our Head of Talent Acquisition. They tell Dominic Laurie how companies such as TalkTalk can

Autism is a lifelong developmental disability, affecting around one in 100 people in the UK. It influences how a person communicates and how they experience the world around them. However, it does not mean they can't fit into the world of work. Far from it. Theo Albert, a young man from London with autism, has a job he loves - planning rail timetables with Network Rail. He's able to combine a job he is good at with a private passion. Helping him to prepare for and secure that role was Clare

Many of us have been worried about getting COVID. But for Kat Lawrenson, it wasn’t getting the virus that was the problem – it was what happened afterwards. Months after contracting it, the TalkTalk employee was hit with side effects so serious that she’s convinced she’s only around today because of the quick wittedness of her husband and a locum doctor. A year on from the start of the COVID pandemic, she is a living testimony to the long-lasting effects the virus can have, but also the

2021/03/12

We learned in the last episode of Walking the Walk how valuable it is for women in traditionally male dominated careers to have their own networks. But one message that comes through often is that mutual support isn’t enough. At TalkTalk we recognise the importance of Allyship – noone more so than Ian McDonald, who says that men have to step up too. Presented by Dominic Laurie.

Having a supportive network is one of the most common routes to success in business. But in careers that have traditionally been a male domain, those networks have often resembled a bit of a boys club. That’s now changing – especially in the world of tech. But it wasn’t always the case. A few years ago, when times were a bit different, my colleague Lizzie Kelly-Dyson decided to create a space that for people working in UX especially for women. And it went from Manchester to all around the

Jen Mossop Scott has a job that demands a comprehensive understanding of all the various technology systems TalkTalk uses, which, as one of the UK’s biggest ISPs, is a significant number. However, she began her journey a million miles away from where she is now. Not just because she grew up on the other side of the world to Salford, TalkTalk’s home city. But also because she began her studies in the world of words and philosophy, not code. But that’s been no barrier to becoming TalkTalk’s

2021/02/24

The world of work in this pandemic has been hard for most of us. Some have lost jobs. Others have kept them but had to work in a strange new challenging outside environment of masks and social distancing. Others still have worked from home and are dealing with hours of video calls without the usual camaraderie of colleagues. Difficult for most of us. But what if you are profoundly deaf? How do you deal with those challenges? Our colleague Isla Simpson was the youngest person in the UK at

Charmaine Connors: Apprentice, Coder, Mum

2021/02/10

Charmaine Connors breaks the mould of who you think an apprentice might be. She isn’t in her late teens and working in manufacturing. Instead, she only went to college at 29, did a degree at 34, and learned to code at 36. She’s also a proud mum to an 11 year old son. In the first episode of Walking the Walk, Charmaine tells us how being an apprentice at TalkTalk has changed her life, and how she sees her future. Presented by Dominic Laurie.
