People Need To Be Aware Of The Dangers Of Drink Spiking

Feb 13, 2023

This is quite a different discussion from the usual ones that we have on ScaleUp Radio. 

I interview Dawn Dines who is the CEO and founder of Stamp Out Spiking (SOS) and you only need to listen to the first few seconds to hear how passionate Dawn is about the issue of drinks spiking. 

This is a discussion with Dawn all around championing a cause and is a great example of building an organisation around a mission that you really want to achieve. 

It's less about the monetary side of things than most of the interviews that we've had in the past. Dawn has been doing this for about 20 years and it's really getting traction now. Dawn is trying to really change mindsets and to be able to build a mission led business delivering on that cause that will be able to fund the awareness training that she wants to be able to do. 

It is a really interesting discussion and as I say, very different. We go through all sorts of aspects, including a visit to Dragon's Den. I think Dawn would admit perhaps before she was really ready to think about it from a business perspective, but all sorts of interesting things, particularly if you're building a mission led business where you're trying to champion a cause and how do you go about really raising awareness and educate people.
