Good News Stories This week...

It has been reported that us Brits spend more than £5bn a year on high street coffee. I for one am missing my daily dose of caffeine and can't wait for my favourite cafe's to open on 12th April.

The tech sector has recently seen pre-pandemic levels of hiring return and is now turning to the Government's Kickstart scheme to encourage under 24s into the sector. Given the widening digital skills gap, this seems like a great way for us to encourage and nurture the next generation of digital talent. 

... and finally, below are some of the best stories from ecommerce in the past week - we hope you enjoy!
