OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE World Star PR
In homes and school communities nationwide, there is re-energized interest in the values of community, compassion, and tolerance, and in finding our way to a kinder culture - a culture that starts with our families. Headlines speak of hate crimes, intolerance, and us-versus-them divisiveness.
Recent political events have left many Americans yearning for unity, respect, and compassion in our national discourse. In our schools, bullying continues to be a pervasive problem, and in our homes, screen-time poses a constant threat to family time . Research shows that connection and social engagement are key to successful, fulfilling lives, and yet we have never been less connected than we are now.

An NHS worker from Ipswich has lost more than a third of her body weight after being told by doctors she was too overweight to operate on.
Nikita Wicks, 29, joined Slimming World in August 2018 after having a health scare which meant she needed to have surgery for her varicose veins.
Varicose veins are swollen and enlarged veins that are often lumpy, bulging or twisted in appearance. In some serious cases, like Nikita s, they need to be operated on to prevent further health problems.
Nikita weighed 18 stone 7lbs when she first visited her GP and was told she could not have the surgery unless she lost weight.
