 GMB Union had a demo at Asda Kettering on Monday 15th July 2024 in the morning. The demonstration was for Equal Pay and also the amount of hours that have been reduced in Asda Stores since the Issa Brothers and TDR Capital took over, which for Kettering is 11% of the stores employees have disappeared through cuts in hours.
The Equal Pay back pay owed in the Kettering Store is £3.8 Million in owed wages.  Funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund and in partnership with The Core at Corby Cube and North Northamptonshire County Council, this experience tells the story of Corby's steel making past and is the culmination of over a year's work finding, capturing and presenting the real stories from the real people of Corby.
If you want to see some more about the project, check out the project website at www.steeltowntales.co.uk.
