As we start to look towards a new normal, we all expect to feel safe in the workplace and cared for when working from home remotely. At Sodexo we want to make sure that our clients and customers can count on us to to adopt the highest health and safety standards as people return to work.

Last week to support this aim, we saw the launch of rise with Sodexo, our new programme aimed at helping our clients prepare to reopen or be reconfigured to meet the requirements of their new normal.

We know that this means the hard work continues for many of you, and for some this work is already underway, so in his last Hidden Heroes message, our Ambassador Matt Dawson thanks just some of your colleagues who have already helped to proactively support their clients reopening.

For now we say goodbye to Matt's weekly feature (in this format at least!), but please continue telling us about your Hidden Heroes by completing this Your_Sodexo form. This is so we can continue to feature your stories in the coming weeks as we all work together to rise again.
