The Calmer team are delighted to announce that we have been commissioned to identify how best to support London’s gig economy workers. After extensive research into the issues, we have launched a survey for gig workers to have their say up until 20th November, and following this we will host a free webinar, open to gig workers, entrepreneurs, and businesses who are dedicated to supporting the wellbeing of those in the gig economy.

“We are delighted to have been commissioned to support Londoners who are reliant upon virtual platforms for their work.” said Tania Diggory, Founder & Director of Calmer. “This issue uniquely — though not exclusively — touches on large urban communities that rely on shift, support and delivery services, without acknowledging the workers providing these services. These are often physically demanding jobs with workers either riding bikes or standing on their feet for hours, adding bodily stress to other stresses more common to London workers.”
