    Our aim is to change consumer behaviour, focusing on the peak shopping and sale seasons. We want to be front of mind when the public are shopping. And that’s where you come in.

    Worried about your employees not having the knowledge or time to support their wellbeing or that of the people they care about? Our courses will provide them with the fundamentals of mental health and wellbeing, with practical tools they can put into action – at work and at home.

Every day, 30 million people shop. And three million people power retail – nearly one in ten of the UK workforce. But more than two-thirds have faced abuse, aggression or disrespect just for doing their jobs.

Let’s Respect Retail is here to change that.

A cultural movement driven by all of us – workers, shoppers, citizens – who believe in something better.

Respect starts with being seen.

A smile. A thank you. A moment of recognition.

Human connection is the foundation of dignity and the beginning of change.

That’s why we’re starting with the smile of respect. A small act that proves we still see each other.

That we choose connection over conflict.

Let’s Respect Retail stands for a different kind of retail. A world where abuse is no longer normal.

Where shopkeepers and shoppers stand side by side with dignity.

Let’s end abuse.

Let’s bring joy back to shopping.

Let’s give a smile of respect. Let’s Respect Retail.
