Last week, our UK CEO, Ashwin, had the honour of re-signing the Armed Forces Covenant at RAF High Wycombe, alongside representatives from across the Armed Forces community. We’re proud to be the UK’s leading private sector employer of veterans and this renewed pledge strengthens our promise to support serving personnel, veterans, and reservists. It builds on existing commitments, including supporting veterans with employment opportunities at Tesco, helping spouses and partners of serving personnel find roles across our business, and promoting the Reserve Forces to our colleagues.

The Tesco Winter Food Collection is back 27 - 29 November in large stores and from 24 November in Express stores, in partnership with Trussell and FareShare UK. From hanging lights for the neighbours to see, to a perfectly imperfect handmade gift - Christmas is a time when we do things for others. So, if you can, please help someone who needs it by picking up a food donation bag or long-life product in a store near you.

Transgender Day of Remembrance is marked annually on the 20th of November and honours Transgender+ lives lost over the past year. It’s a time for reflection and a call to action for greater awareness, understanding, and advocacy. Our LGBTQ+ Colleague Network observed the day by holding a candlelit vigil with readings and a moment of silence for those who have lost their lives to violence. We also lit up our iconic Heart building and hosted an online panel with Dylan Holloway and Not A Phase to raise awareness and strengthen allyship. At Tesco, everyone is welcome. Together, we celebrated the resilience of the Transgender+ community and are helping in working towards a future where everyone can live authentically and safely. #Tesco #LGBTQIA #TDOR #ColleageNetwork
