Target Talks: Purposeful PR
Target Talks: Taking Purposeful Action with Josephine Osborne
In this episode of Target Talks, Sam Kandiyali is joined by Josephine Osborne, Senior Project Manager at Specsavers.
Jo begins by talking about Specsavers’ work in improving lives through better sight and hearing – the organisation’s purpose. She introduces listeners to Specsavers Homelessness programme which focuses on making eye and hearing care accessible to all including those experiencing homelessness.
Jo explains the importance of being present in the communities that find it difficult to access care, and how this has been vital to understanding the needs of disadvantaged people, which is central to Specsavers’ Community Sustainability activity.
Sam and Jo discuss how Specsavers stores were encouraged to get onboard with the organisation’s purpose, using a focus group of people with lived experience of homelessness to help local store partners understand the problems faced in their communities.
Jo also talks about the impact that purposeful charity partnerships have had on Specsavers’ work and the difference they have made to local communities.
Listen to their conversation in full to hear Jo’s take on living and breathing purpose as a company and how this shapes everything Specsavers does. To contact Jo, you can find her here on LinkedIn.
