#TheNextChapter #ItsOkImWithTheAA

A very special day at The AA yesterday as we welcomed 1,000 colleagues in person, had live link ups to our offices, and many more joining on live stream or watching on demand: The Next Chapter Live – our all-colleague experience. We celebrated how far we’ve come as a business and what’s to come, heard from Jakob Pfaudler and his team on our journey and the great progress we’ve made and were delighted to welcome our Chairman Rick Haythornthwaite to hear his valuable perspectives. The interactive Expo showcased the different parts of the business and the part they play in our success, including our latest fleet as well as our heritage vehicles to showcase our proud history. And the bitesize sessions gave our colleagues the opportunity to hear more about different topics that all help us create confidence for drivers.   An incredible and inspiring day. We’re proud of everything we’ve achieved and our amazing team - without them none of this would be possible - here’s to the next chapter!    #itsokimwiththeAA Louise Benford Dean Keeling Nick Edwards Harj Johal Aileen Gillan Neil Blagden Gus Park tom mackay James Cox Tom Fawcett

Today is World Mental Health day and the theme this year is workplace mental health, highlighting the importance of addressing mental health and wellbeing in the workplace.    Here at The AA, we know that our people are our power, so that’s why we're using today as an opportunity to tackle any stigma surrounding mental health in the workplace and encouraging our colleagues and customers to have open conversations about mental health.    We empower our managers by training them to identify indicators of poor mental health and provide appropriate support to their teams. We have over 100 Mental Health First Aiders and Wellbeing Champions within The AA and provide specialist mental health support to our colleagues through our psychological wellbeing services.     #WorldMentalHeathDay  #MentalHealthFirstAiders  #ItsOkImWithTheAA 

The AA are proud to announce the launch of the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower across the business, reinforcing our commitment to creating an inclusive environment for everybody.     The Sunflower is a symbol for people living with non-visible disabilities to indicate they might need additional support, understanding or time.     With specialist training implemented across the business, the Sunflower will enable our colleagues to better support our customers and each other, helping us achieve our goal of creating a safe and inclusive environment where everyone feels they belong.

It’s National Inclusion Week and this year’s theme is 'Impact Matters’.    We’re taking this opportunity to highlight the impact we all have and the role we play in ensuring people feel like they belong, creating a safe and inclusive workplace.     We’ll be showcasing the great initiatives we have, encouraging colleagues to continue identifying opportunities to make positive change and working alongside our employee network groups to shout about the positive impact we have made, we’re reminding everyone that whoever you are, you’re OK with The AA.    #NationalInclusionWeek  #Diversity  #Inclusion  #Whoeverwherever

Today my Executive Team and I all spent time out on patrol. Such an important day understanding what’s working well and how we can continue to improve the experience we give our Members 24/7, and of course for our wonderful team. It was also great to hear first-hand from our Members about their experiences with us.  Thank you Mike Giddens for such an insightful day. I’m proud of the work you and our colleagues do every day, giving drivers confidence that they’re with The AA #itsokimwithTheAA Dean Keeling Louise Benford tom mackay Neil Blagden Gus Park Harj Johal Nick Edwards Aileen Gillan James Cox
