BRIEF
Raise awareness for the Social Mobility Foundation’s work including its Employer Index and ‘Class Pay Gap’ Day

The Index was also covered by a range of trade publications including People Management and Accountancy Today
We landed broadcast coverage for the Class Pay Gap Day on BBC Radio 5 Live, LBC, Times Radio and London Live
