As well as joining our events, hosting your own event is a brilliant way to spread the word about the paying the Living Wage, or your commitment to providing Living Hours and a Living Pension.
The event could be with your own team or with other employers in your region/ sector.
Below are some ideas from previous Living Wage Week events. If you are thinking of hosting an event - do get in touch with your usual Living Wage contact or katie.watts@livingwage.org.uk.
Q&As and networking
If you’re looking for something small scale, why not take that business breakfast online and make it an informal session where you invite employers in your region or industry to network and find out more about becoming a Living Wage Employer. Networking events are most effective in person but can be done online using breakout rooms.
Hold a panel discussion
Why is the real Living Wage so important today, and in your industry or region? Reach out to other Living Wage Employers and hold a panel discussion to share perspectives on the issue of a real Living Wage today. Panel discussions can be easily adapted to an online event.
Team coffee morning
Hold an internal coffee morning style event and invite your colleagues to find out more about what your Living Wage commitment means. If one of your colleagues has a story to share on the difference the Living Wage has made to them and they feel confident, perhaps they could share this
