Location: Old Theatre, London School of Economics, Houghton Street
Time: 6:30pm - 8:00pm
Speakers: Mike Coupe (CEO, Sainsbury's) and Richard Layard (CEP, LSE).
With more people working more hours, many are finding themselves increasingly "time-poor".

Drawing on the Sainsbury's Living Well index he will answer questions put to him by Richard Layard on how we can lead happier, healthier lives.
