The Entertainer is a UK-based toy retail company, first established in 1981 by husband-and-wife team Gary and Catherine Grant. With a mission to be the best-loved toyshop, the company now operates over 170 independent stores, and its website, TheToyShop.com, which hosts a 30-minute click and collect service, receives over 33 million visits yearly.
The retailer prioritises employee wellbeing. It has launched its second Wellbeing Week at its Head Office, offering activities such as Pilates, Reflexology, Yoga and Nordic Walking. Visits from Samaritans, mental health in the workplace sessions, and CPR training from Thames Valley Air Ambulance were organised. Employees also have access to Health MOT sessions, providing valuable information on cholesterol and blood sugar levels, blood pressure, heart rate, and BMI.
The Entertainer also demonstrates its commitment to employee learning and development. Its training portal, The EnterTrainer, offers online courses on wellbeing topics like stress management. The courses are accessible from anywhere via a mobile app. Additionally, a section of its intranet is dedicated to providing information and videos on various wellbeing topics.
Charity and community involvement form a crucial part of The Entertainer's ethos. It donates 10% of its net annual profit to charity and encourages employees to contribute through Payroll Giving. The company's involvement with the Pennies scheme, a micro-donation initiative, highlights its commitment to making a difference in the community.
