SMT Round-Up – June
- Thanks to Tina for talking to us about the valuable role of the play & well-being team at Derian. It was interesting to hear all that you do, and a great reminder of the depth of work the team carry out.
- Andrew is off work currently, and Mick is leading the Retail team on an interim basis, in his absence.
- The Derian Team Away day has now been rearranged for September 4th at Brockholes – more details to follow nearer the time
- Thank you for all your feedback on the proposal for redesign of the car park, we’re currently looking at the options based on your comments. which are largely in favour of keeping the seaside garden as it is. We are looking at other options as explored at the We Are Derian Forum.
- Final approval for a 5% cost of living pay increase is anticipated to be received at next week’s Strategic HR meeting in which case this will be in your June’s salary. We’re all set to press the green button!
- We’ll soon be celebrating Children’s Hospice Week which is a time to recognise all the great work that goes on at Derian – watch out for any special activities that may be happening
- To celebrate our 30th Anniversary we will be holding an Open Day on 20th October, as well as inviting your families along we’re looking for suggestions for an invited guest list so please let Jacquie know if there’s anyone you think would like to join us
