Cashmere sweaters are everywhere these days, often at unbelievably low prices. The appeal is obvious: if you’ve ever worn cashmere, you know it’s soft, light, and warm — an impressive fiber that’s hard to give up. Unfortunately, those bargain prices usually come with a catch. Cashmere comes from the fine undercoat of a handful of goat breeds. Typically, one goat will be sheared twice a year, producing just four to six ounces (113 to 170 grams) of cashmere annually. That’s not a lot of supply for a growing market. “The producers of raw materials are actually under a lot of…

The Nordic red-hot startup movement continues. On Tuesday, Neil Murray, founder and general partner at Copenhagen-based firm The Nordic Web Ventures, announced the close of a $6 million Fund III to continue investing in early-stage founders in the region.   The fund will focus on writing the first institutional checks to companies focused on robotics, AI-native companies, and deep tech founders.   Murray, a solo GP, told TechCrunch that his first two funds were “test vehicles” to prove his ability to spot and invest in top talent in the region. Now, seven years later, he has written the first check into more than 50 companies, with a portfolio including the unicorn Lovable and the remote…

Cover of Shape History’s report. Impact-first agency Shape History has analysed Charities Aid Foundation’s annual UK Giving Report to draw out fundraising opportunities. CAF’s 2025 edition of the report was published on 27 March, based on a representative sample of 13,000 participants. While the UK public donated an estimated £15.4 billion to charity in 2024 (an increase of 11%), the total number of people giving to charity in that year dropped to 50% for the first time since the report was first published in 2016. It has been a steady decline since that year, from 61% giving to charity in…

This blog post was reviewed and updated in December 2025. You may wonder why you need to have a flu vaccine every year, and how effective the flu vaccines are in preventing you from becoming seriously unwell. The vaccines help protect those most vulnerable from developing serious illness and being hospitalized and we strongly encourage all those eligible to get vaccinated against flu as soon as possible – vaccines remain our best defence. Every winter, influenza viruses sweep through communities, causing a seasonal epidemic. There are several different flu vaccines that are used in the national vaccination programme and all…

Fattah Derrahi told the women they had “good energy” after watching them exercise on Brighton and Hove’s seafront. The care home head chef admitted he sexually assaulted nine different women over a five year period. Derrahi approached the women as they warmed down from early morning exercise sessions on Hove Lawns between 2021 and 2025.

The women – who do not know each other – were exercising alone on the seafront in the early morning when Derrahi approached them saying: “You’ve got…

You ask, we answer! @brandy_larrimore says, “We must know who made this dress.” Cardi B was recently captured celebrating her beau Stefon Diggs 32nd birthday in Miami this month, and all we can say is her snatch game is unbelievable. The “Outside” rapper who just gave birth to a baby boy last month looked absolutely incredible in a black custom Candice Cuoco knit dress that was hip-hugging with a deep plunge neckline. What took her look from a simple black dress to perhaps an iconic dress was the gold chain detailing that was daring and risqué. With an open back…

Ford is ending production of the fully-electric F-150 Lightning as part of a broader companywide shakeup of its electric vehicle plans, the company announced Monday. In its place, Ford will sell what’s known as an “extended range electric vehicle” version of the truck, which adds a gas generator that can recharge the battery pack to power the motors for over 700 miles.  The company did not share when the new F-150 Lightning will go on sale, or how much it will cost.  The pivot will come with a substantial price tag for Ford. The company will take a $19.5 billion hit to reshape its EV business strategy. Most of those charges,…
