We’re thrilled to share a special mention from PRWeek UK in their article about the industry’s best office pets!  https://lnkd.in/ebYhzibk Earlier this year, Twiglet, the beloved pet of one of our colleague’s neighbours, was stolen. Lexington immediately sprang into action, launching a social media campaign and doing rapid press engagement – making the story go viral. With the help of Essex Police and public tip-offs, Twiglet was found several counties away. We’re incredibly proud of our team and the power of community in bringing Twiglet home. 🐶❤️   #OfficePets #Lexington #ShapeTomorrow
