Leave:

EMPLOYEES ONLY

Bringing together the bulk of the equality laws in 2010 created some odd gaps in the way maternity protection works for pensions and death benefits. Until those gaps are joined up, it is difficult to be absolutely sure what the minimum requirements are. These tables set out what we think will be enough to be sure to keep you within the law

DC scheme:

employer ordinary contributions YES*

Use notional earnings

DB scheme:

pension accrual? YES Use notional earnings

CONTINUES

Employee is not treated as having left during leave

DC scheme:

employer contributions from salary sacrifice? YES* Use notional earnings Employer pays full value under sacrifice arrangement but deductions from pay must be limited to earnings above statutory pay

Some argue that for DC arrangements the employer also needs to make up the difference between what the employee contributes based on actual earnings, and what they would have contributed based on notional earnings. It isn’t clear that this is needed, and it isn’t normally done

Evidence required for leave and pay?

DC scheme:

Membership

Continues if employee returns to work – employee is not treated as having left during leave If employee does not return, membership is treated as ending at the end of any paid leave

employer ordinary contributions

DB scheme:

A budget range of dining sets rebranded to give the appearance of a much higher quality product. Going along with the ‘less is more’ concept, everything needed to be kept simple from photography, colour palette, even the name ‘Eat-on’.

Magic Me’s team grew and we took on a Programme Director and Community & Communications Manager We launched our Friends Scheme for donations over £10

Magic Me with Schools and Older People Creative projects linking older people with local school pupils have been a core Magic Me activity for more than 21 years. Annual projects with regular partners have enabled us to develop real working relationships with school staff, older people and those who work with them, honing plans to meet changing needs and target specific groups. New activities grow from participants’ suggestions and intergenerational work is woven into organisations’ regular programmes.

Live Long! Live Well! Live Life! Live Long! Live Well! Live Life! with regular partners Oaklands School and Sundial Centre, was enriched by involving students from the newly opened Cambridge Heath Sixth Form. Participants created postcards and a video about how to live a healthy, happy life, launched at a feast they cooked and hosted for 60 people invited from the local community

Our partnerships with Primary Schools and older people are just as important.

The 2010 Magic Me project, the third, was funded by NHS Tower Hamlets, aiming to promote better mental health amongst older people and greater community understanding of elders’ mental health issues.

This year Clara Grant School pupils joined with Fern Street Settlement members to create beautiful mosaics and friendship benches for both venues. This was the fourth annual Magic Me arts project with the two organisations, who keep in touch through the year with visits by pupils for concerts, local history work and other curriculum based sessions. A new Magic Me Holiday Club was launched at Easter 2010 for children who wanted to continue visiting their older friends in their own time.

Dressing Up! This year’s 7th annual collaborative project with The Women’s Library and Mulberry School for Girls, saw women aged 14 to 84 exploring the ways in which women express themselves and disguise themselves through clothes. In 2009 participants used photography and creative writing to explore the theme of Utopia.
