THE OXFORD LIVING WAGE CAMPAIGN, along with the Jellicoe Society and Citizens UK, are planning a peaceful community action on three Tesco stores in Oxford on Thursday 9th June (Thursday of 6th week). They are in the process of bringing together various faith groups, community groups, charities, students and school children to spread awareness about the issue of low pay in Oxford and the Living Wage, and to encourage Tesco to pay their staff a Living Wage. The action will consist of a briefing and then going to the stores to talk to staff and customers. As part of the action they will be handing over a letter to the store manager to be handed to the CEO of Tesco, signed by a dozen community leaders and concerned citizens in Oxford. Meet at 6pm in the Chapel of Lincoln College.
