I'm still grinning after this interview today with Jim Holland who is the co founder of Carma. 

Carma is essentially a digital platform that focuses on social and environmental impact by employing veterans and service leavers in something called the Green Task Force to plant trees. 

So they're making a really positive impact in the world and it really was a fantastic discussion covering a great journey that Jim has been on .  We start off in Barnsley and Jim escaping by joining the Royal Navy, and all that happened along the way to where he is now.

It really is a fascinating conversation and one that I am certain will put a smile on your face. So I'm going to leave it there and suggest that you listen to Jim and his story….
