The toolkits will include a calendar outlining the festivals and days of importance across the major UK religions. At key events, separate leaflets giving further details will be distributed to targeted areas.


Leonie Morris, head of diversity at Tesco, said: “It is our aim to ensure that our colleagues and customers feel welcome at Tesco. We believe that this calendar will contribute to all of our colleagues and customers being better understood and supported.”
