About this deal

It's a source of regret, clearly. And yet she never fell out with her parents. She was never disowned.

You can commission additional slip testing through the supplier – eg on surfaces/ contaminants representative of your workplace. As well as being a memoir of her life, the book is also a document of what has happened in queer history. One little tidbit I got from the book was that Calamity Jane was an undercover queer classic! One of my all-time favourites is “FEMINISM IS THE RADICAL IDEA THAT WOMEN ARE PEOPLE”. It’s not a big ask, is it? Charlesworth herself grew up in 1960s Yorkshire where her parents ran a corner shop. "I was never particularly interested in sexuality," she says of her childhood and teenage years. "I never had the stirrings. I'd heard about lesbianism and one night a penny dropped, you know? 'Oh my God, I wouldn't surprised if I turned out to be one of them.' I had a dark night of the soul for about 24 hours. And then I thought: 'Do I fancy anybody? No. Not blokes or women or anything.' And quite pragmatically I thought I'd leave it until I do. Which was quite a while, it turned out." Color and texture is used to emphasize the individual themes and messages portrayed in each layout - the attention to detail is phenomenal. The reading experience consistently reminded me of looking through a stunning scrapbook filled to the brim with historical significance.

You’ll be privy to Kate’s own mystification then awkward, uh-oh education; the disinformation then elucidation; timidity, discovery, further confusion and gradually figuring it out. It’s never a straight learning curve, is it? Now imagine all that… before the age of internet information! Before the love that dared not speak its name spoke its name! Before you might know where to go, or whom you could confide in, ever so carefully even those closest to you! To wear sandals is just asking for trouble in a kitchen, but as Phil points out, if identified as a potential hazard, then it is PPE. Biting the bullet and paying could save a fortune in a court of law if an accident did arise and I would think it only to be a matter of time before it did happen. Also books, plays and films: you’ll have quite the reading list when you finish this, should you want seminal works to watch out for! I have a problem with a member of staff who is saying that because we are restricting the type of footwear they can wear then it is PPE and we should pay. In my old retail life staff were expected to wear sensible appropriate footwear - provided by themselves. This person wants to wear open toes in a small kitchen , the RA states closed toes as there is a risk of hot liquids.

RR801 - A study of the effect of modifying the European Standard mechanical slip resistance test for footwear Further information Otherwise, lots of fun. Intersectional. Not TERFy. And gives the best account of the trajectory over the 80s and 90s of that space between Clause 28 and repeal that I’ve seen.Footwear can be important in preventing slips in the workplace and selecting the right shoe sole can have a big effect on reducing slip injuries. As a minimum, there should be a ‘sensible shoe’ policy in force." Charlesworth shows us her whole life, starting with her childhood in Yorkshire and her move to Manchester in the late 1960s, where she studied graphics and stage design. We see her growing in confidence on the path from her first awkward same-sex sexual encounters to the emotionally charged moment when she comes out to her parents. ‘It’s unnatural!’, is her mother’s response. ‘She should see a psychiatrist.’ These autobiographical tales are skilfully interwoven with notable historical moments, such as the appalling treatment of Alan Turing after the Second World War and the trial of Lord Montagu in 1954, the outrage over which paved the way for legal reform. I wonder if Kate Charlesworth’s title, Sensible Shoes [ sic - Cathy], is even meaningful to today’s young queer?

Two issues only: one that her time at New Scientist was missed out but it’s where I met her work; and also that sometimes I couldn’t follow the narrative. There are many diverse influences on the way that English is used across the world today. We look at some of the ways in which the language is changing. Read our series of blogs to find out more. Maybe the next time kitchen staff are employed, it should be incorporated into the conditions of employment.Sensible Footwear documents Charlesworth’s life as a lesbian, incorporating non- fiction documentation of the LGBTQ+ movement from the 1950s to present. Charlesworth has created a detailed look into the world of gay culture and the gay rights movement, using her own life experiences as a basis for the inclusion of relevant events and developments that were happening around her at the time.

This is part graphic-memoir and part graphic-history text which starts in the 1950s when author Kate Charlesworth was born. Now that Sensible Footwear is finished, she and Dianne are working how to live without this monster of a book dominating their lives. Consider asking your supplier to provide trial pairs to help you make the right choice, and do not select footwear on the basis of brochure descriptions or laboratory test results alone.

The safety features of footwear, including slip resistance, are tested according to a set of European test standards written into EN ISO 20344:2004 (A1: 2007). Footwear which has passed the EN test for slip resistance will be marked with one of the following codes, SRA, SRB or SRC. Footwear trials should involve a representative sample of the workforce and last long enough to produce meaningful results. Remember - workers may not wear footwear if it is uncomfortable or impractical, no matter how effective it is.
