This is the taste of sweet success from last Friday at No.1 Spinningfields! 🍰 Our very own Anna Howard from our Manchester Head Office, joined the Manchester Mind charity bake sale by making and donating some delicious Mint Aero fudge to the bake sale cause and also helped with a taste test! The charity bake sale has now surpassed its target, raising an incredible £1,043 to support the organisation in continuing to offer free support and advice services to those experiencing mental health issues. Manchester Mind provides mental health support to over 7,000 children, young people, and adults every year. A huge thank you to Oliver James, one of the tenants at No.1 Spinningfields in Manchester, for hosting this fantastic charity bake sale and bringing the community together for such an important cause 🙌 Every bit counts in helping those in need! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dcUiZVTt #AdeptCommunity #CharityBakeSale #SupportLocal #ManchesterMind #MentalHealthAwareness #TeamAdept

A message from Luke's Dad... 💕 "Paul, just watched a preview of the podcast and it is lovely. All happy from our end. Thank you for taking him to Leeds and for all the opportunities you are providing him (and Matthew). Hopefully, other companies will watch this and follow Adept's lead on this. You, Nick, Alan and everybody in the team are shining examples of how a successful business can be run efficiently but with great compassion and care for the staff too. We consider ourselves very fortunate to have Luke involved with you all. Please pass our thanks on to all of the Adept team. Top class 👍" Luke is a shining light of what is possible in supporting individuals with Down's Syndrome in the workplace. We wouldn't be the same without team members like Luke. Our relationship with the DSA has provided insight into how we can support and provide valuable experiences for people like Luke. We, at Adept, encourage other organisations around Manchester and the wider UK, to explore what is possible when promoting inclusivity and care in the workplace 🙌 #AdeptingToChange #Podcast #Feedback #TeamAdept #Inclusivity #CompassionInBusiness #Leadership

Great news for workers across the UK 📢 The new Real Living Wage rates are here! 🙌 ▫ £12.60 across the UK, and ▫ £13.85 in London This increase means a meaningful pay rise for almost half a million workers, with full-time employees earning thousands more than the Government’s minimum wage. The Living Wage Foundation's real Living Wage is the only UK wage rate independently calculated based on the actual cost of living. With the cost of living crisis, these changes couldn’t be more crucial. We're proud to be one of the 15,000 accredited Living Wage Employers who have voluntarily committed to these rates and collectively secured nearly £3.5 billion in extra wages for low-paid workers since 2011.

Today marks World Menopause Day 🌹 Did you know that approximately 20% of the workforce is menopausal? It's important to have open conversations, raise awareness, and integrate supportive training, policies, and procedures in our workplaces for those navigating this stage. Shockingly, 1 in 4 employees consider leaving their job due to perimenopausal symptoms, and 1 in 10 actually do. Supporting these employees not only boosts productivity and reduces absenteeism but also helps retain valuable and experienced talent. Today, let's consider how we, as individuals and as businesses, can better support those going through menopause. #WorldMenopauseDay #WorldMenopauseDay2024 #IMS2024 #InternationalMenopauseSociety #SupportInTheWorkplace #AdeptCorporateServices *Source: Menopause Friendly UK

Important notice: Director General's threat update 🚨 Ken McCallum delivered his annual update on the UK's national security threats from the Counter Terrorism Operations Centre in London. Key highlights: 🔴 Terrorism Threats: Since March 2017, MI5 and the police have disrupted 43 late-stage attack plots. 🔴 Youth Involvement: Alarmingly, 13% of terrorism investigations involve individuals under 18. 🔴 Online Influence: The internet plays a critical role in radicalisation, spreading hatred and conspiracy theories that complicate the identification of genuinely dangerous individuals. 🔴 Global Threats: Ongoing threats of renewed efforts to export terrorism. The political instability in the Middle East further exacerbates these threats. 🔴 State Threats: An increase in state threat investigations.
