My Mission: The business of life starts at home.
Home Working Henry exists to build a community around home working, remote working and entrepreneurship.
This is my Mission:
- Create great content that helps people find jobs working from home.
- Build a community that shares our beliefs and spreads our values.
- Highlight issues around housing that damage communities, businesses and the economy.
- Help our community launch businesses and live a life that thrives.
My Beliefs
Choosing how and when we work improves work-life balance, integration, and family life and brings people back to communities.Homeworking employees are productive and engaged and benefit both businesses and local communities.
Housing is a fundamental human right and an entire generation across the English-speaking world has been let down.
Entrepreneurship is a fantastic avenue to gain work-life independence.
