The boss of the John Lewis Partnership has called on the Government to make being in care a protected characteristic, meaning it would be illegal to discriminate against them.
Last year, the department store business focussed on a child in care in its popular Christmas advert and has since raised more than £1 million for its Building Happier Futures programme aimed at supporting care leavers.At an event at its Odney Club venue in Cookham, Berkshire, Dame Sharon told partners from the business and charity partners that it is seeking to help a “community that has been failed by the state”.
It came as John Lewis confirmed it will sell a tote bag as the first item in its Made With Care programme on December 12.
