LIVING WAGE 5

Every week in this column, we celebrate five companies willing to pay the real Living Wage. This is a voluntary rate set by the independent Living Wage Foundation which people can actually live on – £9 an hour, or £10.55 in London. This week we particularly welcome the National

Gallery and General Optical Council in London, Gossypium loungewear in Newhaven, East Sussex, the Executive Shaving Co in Glasgow and The

Golden Smog pub in Stockton-on-Tees.
