🫶 We’re proud to support #LivingWageWeek as both a #LivingHours & #LivingWage employer. Low pay & insecure employment are key drivers of women’s workplace inequality.
A #LivingWage & #LivingHours can improve the pay & conditions for women in low-paid work & help close the pay gap.

The real #LivingWage allows people to live with dignity and makes a huge difference to workers who are struggling to keep their heads above water. Employers choose to go further than the UK Gov minimum because they value their people.
