84-year-old Lol sits down with her granddaughter to reflect on her early experiences of arriving in the UK. In this clip, she speaks honestly about the shock of seeing different attitudes towards hygiene when she first came over. Her story is told with humour, disbelief and honesty, but underneath it is a powerful reminder of what many from the Windrush generation had to navigate quietly while trying to build a life in a new country. These are the small details that history books often miss, but families remember. 📹: @Tootbox Media #fyp #windrushgeneration #caribbean #jamaica

Tesco Introduces Paid ‘Safe Leave’ for Staff Experiencing Domestic Abuse Tesco has introduced guaranteed paid “Safe Leave” for colleagues experiencing domestic abuse, becoming the first UK supermarket to offer this type of dedicated support. Staff will be able to take up to three days, or 21 hours, of paid leave to take practical steps towards their safety. This could include attending court hearings, arranging emergency accommodation, changing locks, organising childcare or separating finances. Tesco says the policy is designed to remove some of the practical barriers facing victims and survivors, so they do not have to choose between earning a living and taking steps to protect themselves and their families. Managers have also been trained to recognise signs of domestic abuse and direct affected colleagues towards specialist support. #fyp #news
