Richard Leighton - Part 2 - The Social Entrepreneur Michael de Groot - @stayingaliveuk

This is part 2 of a 2-part interview. In Part 2, we go into far more depth around Richard’s Social project to contribute significantly in solving homelessness.

Richard Leighton is Britain’s first male employed as a Social Entrepreneur in Residence. Apart from being entrepreneurial, creative and innovative, he has a proven track record in the design, development, implementation and management of projects, programmes, initiatives and enterprises. 

And he started his vision at a very young age, he doesn’t even remember fully where he got the drive from. He puts it down to his father’s multiple redundancies in journalism and definitely the kindness of his parents ensured he subconsciously was drawn towards social causes.
