Our standards encompass our proposition, our overarching principles, our required customer outcomes and our rules and guidance for members
Home > About > Standards
Our Standards Principles and Outcomes Rules and Guidance Standards Board
The Equity Release Council ("The Council") is a voluntary body which aims to ensure that its members are highly professional and act with integrity and transparency in offering high-quality products and services to customers.
The Standards Board is incorporated as part of the Equity Release Council and exists to ensure that equity release products are safe and reliable for consumers.
It sets the standards and principles for members of the Equity Release Council that are set out within this document. Through these standards, members can guarantee their customers that they offer products and services which conform to the best practices of the sector, ensuring customers are fully informed and properly protected.
The Chair of the Standards Board is tasked with ensuring that the Equity Release Council is constantly driving up standards within the sector and sharing best practice and innovation so that people who use products and services from Equity Release Council members can feel confident in their choice. The Board has three independent members and representation from each of the provider, adviser, solicitor and surveyor membership.
"Allowing people to access some of the savings built up in the value of their homes could help fill the increasing gap in retirement incomes and long-term care costs, but people must have confidence that they will be treated fairly if they consider this option, which is why the maintenance of the highest standards of consumer protection is so essential. The Equity Release Council and its Standards Board bring together the wider equity release sector in a shared objective of providing a safe mechanism for equity release to a much larger group of people," Chris Pond, Chair of the Standards Board.
Our product standards are set out below. Our members are only allowed to tell you that a product meets these product standards if it meets all of them. If you are offered or are considering a product that does not meet all of the standards, the product literature must explain which standards are not met, and give an illustration of the types of risk that this might pose for you.
Our product standards are as follows:
For lifetime mortgages the rate must be fixed for each release or, if variable, the rate must be capped for the life of the loan.
You must have the right to remain in your property for life or until you need to move into long-term care, provided the property remains your main residence and you abide by the terms and conditions of your contract.
You have the right to move to another property subject to the new property being acceptable to your product provider as continuing security for your equity release loan.
The product must have a "no negative equity guarantee". This means that when your property is sold, and agents' and solicitors' fees have been paid, even if the amount left is not enough to repay the outstanding loan to your provider, neither you nor your estate will be liable to pay any more.
All customers taking out new plans which meet the Equity Release Council standards must have the right to make penalty free payments, subject to lending criteria.
Independent legal advice
You may choose your own solicitor to carry out the legal work in connection with your plan. Before the plan is completed, your solicitor will be provided with full details of the plan, including the rights and obligations of both parties (you and your product provider) under the contract, should you choose to go ahead. Both you and your solicitor will be required to sign a certificate confirming that these rights and obligations have been explained to you and that you wish to enter into the plan.
Information about and explanation of your equity release plan
You will be provided with a fair, simple and complete presentation and explanation of your equity release plan. The benefits and limitations of the plan will be clearly set out, together with your obligations under the terms of the contract. You will be given information about:
all the costs that you will have to bear in setting up the plan;
the tax implications;
what will happen if you wish to move to another property; and
how changes in house values may affect your plan.
Our proposition
1. ERC members added value customer offer – 'Our unique USP'
2. Limit of customer offer for non ERC members

How to unlock opportunities through inclusive leadership
Digital content team
Belonging, inclusion and diversity give businesses access to a 'brilliance of difference'. Organisational psychologist John Amaechi and Investec Bank plc's CEO Ruth Leas discuss the benefits and challenges in making this possibility a reality.
John Amaechi used to believe his mother could perform magic.
As a young boy growing up in Stockport, he often accompanied his mum, a GP, when she visited patients in their home. He observed the way she interacted with family members of patients who were severely ill. When she left, a group of people who were in despair felt like they could cope for another week.
In time, John came to realise that the magic was an actual science: psychology.
"The idea that with your words you can change how somebody feels and that somebody is then more able to cope," he says. "That's what made me want to pursue psychology."
Today, John is an organisational psychologist, a Chartered Scientist, an OBE and the founder of APS Intelligence, a company that provides organisations with evidence-based solutions to a range of workplace challenges. He's also a former NBA basketball player.
According to John – and his company's extensive research – diversity, equity and inclusion are key to creating high-performing organisations. At Investec, we feel the same.
We work hard to foster an environment where there's a strong sense of belonging and people are comfortable celebrating their individuality. We want to create spaces where everyone can not only participate freely, but also grow and thrive.
But there is always more that organisations can do, including us.
That's why we were delighted that John could share some of his insights with Investec Bank plc's CEO Ruth Leas for our latest Focus Talk, where they discussed belonging, diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
As John highlights, all three are crucial for a high-performance culture – diversity alone isn't enough.
"The presence of difference has never meant access to the brilliance of difference," he says.
So, what can organisations do to encourage more inclusive leadership and access the brilliance of difference? And how can diverse, high-performing teams help businesses seize new opportunities?
Below are five key talking points from John and Ruth's fascinating discussion.
Prefer to listen on the go?
Download or stream a podcast of the full discussion between Ruth Leas and John Amaechi.
1. Understand actions speak louder than words
John spoke about the power of words when talking about his mother's unerring knack for putting patients and their families at ease. Our words have the ability to comfort, console and support people during difficult times. But it's important not to rely solely on words.
"Saying you care without any accompanying actions can be more damaging than saying nothing at all," he explains. "You have to demonstrate it."
A good example is when organisations say they are on a 'journey' with regards to diversity and inclusion.
For John, two factors define a journey: the destination and expedience. Organisations can't be on a journey if they don't have a good understanding of where they are going or a consensus on how quickly they will get there.
"[Diversity and inclusion] should be a journey, but it isn't yet. We have to make sure it is," he says. "Let's figure out how to get everybody on the same page.
"Who are the people that you're going to communicate with to let them know the urgency of this work? Let them know exactly what the destination looks like."
Leaders must also speak up when they see behaviour that goes against the organisation's values. John firmly believes that any culture is defined by the worst behaviour that people are willing to tolerate.
And it's not just obvious rule-breaking or abuse that needs to be called out. It's the subtle, sophisticated behaviours and microaggressions too, such as when someone steals a colleague's ideas and passes them off as their own.
"When even the smallest thing that doesn't fit with your values is allowed, it eliminates the values. It destroys them, it erodes them slowly," John says.
People should also be self-aware and recognise the impact their behaviour has on others. This is especially important for leaders because of the disproportionate power they hold.
"Everybody is a giant to somebody. And there's nothing more dangerous than a giant who doesn't know he's a giant," John comments.
2. Care about people
We live in an increasingly automated world, but John is confident the world of work will always fundamentally focus on people. The future is human.
"That means we can't just treat each other like widgets of productivity," John explains. "We have to give a damn about each other as people."
The Covid-19 pandemic has brought these issues into sharper focus over the last two years.
Ruth Leas, Investec Bank plc's CEO
At Investec, we often talk about doing the right thing, even when no-one is looking. That's always been the ethos here, and there's always been a generosity of spirit. An investment bank with a heart and a soul.
"We have to care when somebody comes in after a night of caring responsibilities, that hasn't gone well, for example, with an older parent or sibling or child. We can't just have them come into work and pretend that's a normal day for them."
Making accommodations, investing in a person's development and – crucially – always being present and attentive when interacting with colleagues are all ways that inclusive leaders can show they care.
"Our attention is a tool or a weapon. We all know that when somebody is not paying attention to you, they are saying something about you," John adds.
"They might be saying you're boring. They might be saying what you're saying is not of value, but they are saying something negative about you when they don't pay attention."
3. Adapt how we work
Like many people at the beginning of the pandemic, John wasn't a fan of the transition to working virtually. At 6 foot 9 inches tall and weighing roughly 180kg, his personal presence certainly leaves a lasting impact on people.
"When I walk into a room, you may not like me, but you can't ignore me!" he says.
"One of my skills is being able to connect with people in person in a way that – although I don't know you yet – I care about what is happening in this interaction. I was worried about how this would translate [online]."
But John says we need to leave our excuses about the virtual world behind. It's still possible, albeit more challenging, to make people feel a sense of belonging and inclusion. To do so, we need to reimagine the workplace and create environments where people can thrive.
"There are colleagues who have been operating in really difficult environments. Junior colleagues perched on the end of a bed with a hot laptop on their knee," he says.
"We have to recognise that when the end of the pandemic comes, and it hasn't yet, there will be an opportunity for us to rethink how we work together."
What might that involve? An easy first step is to stop holding back-to-back meetings, just because it's more possible in a virtual world. People can't stay engaged and focused for seven-hour blocks without pause. They need time to breathe.
"And those colleagues who work 14-hour days for any period of time; we can't just pretend that's sustainable," John says.
4. Recognise that everyone has a responsibility
Inclusive leaders have a huge impact on fostering belonging, diversity and inclusion within an organisation. John likens the effect to a murmuration, when massive groups of starlings twist, turn, swoop and twirl in perfect formation across the sky.
"One of my colleagues did their doctoral dissertation on murmurations. They found that only four birds have to communicate for millions of birds to move in this agile way."
But while a few individuals in an organisation may be the driving force behind diversity, equity and inclusion, John says everyone should play their part. People need to understand that dignity is not a zero-sum game.
John Amaechi, organisational psychologist
No man has to lose so that women get equality. No white person has to lose so that black people get equality. No person without a disability has to lose so that a disabled person can get equality.
"Dignity is one of the few things that when one person gives it to another, both parties get more."
So, what can people do to be more inclusive day to day? John recommends a combination of 'benign ignorance' and 'enthusiastic inquisitiveness' to make people feel welcome and included.
Benign ignorance means throwing out any stereotypical first impressions and committing to not making assumptions about someone new. Let them present their best foot to you.
Meanwhile, enthusiastic inquisitiveness is about making it clear to people that whatever they want to share with you about themselves, you will listen and treat them with the utmost respect.
"People want to share with you. They want to disclose. People find it easier to let you know who they are. And once they do, you can start building that relationship. That builds teams. That builds high performance," John says.
John Amaechi
There are people who think that we can solve inequality by pretending that everyone's the same. They're not at all. And it is their differences that bring richness that allows us different perspectives and makes us more resilient during times of change.
5. Look beyond traditional indicators of performance
Inclusive leaders are instrumental in building a high-performance culture, but what qualities should they be looking for in their teams?
According to John, many of the traditionally favoured metrics, such as years of experience or personality tests, are generally poor at predicting future performance. In fact, he cites one study that showed graphology – a person's handwriting – is about as accurate as their number of years' experience for predicting performance.
"I tend to look for energy in the face of the mundane, the vexing or the obscure. Colleagues who approach stuff that is boring or dull with real energy," John says.
"People who are scientifically minded. And by that, I mean people who allow evidence to change their mind. I know we're in this weird world where changing your mind is a bad thing, but I think it's really important."
Accountability is also sexy, he says. Indeed, he has a T-shirt that says exactly that. It shows someone is willing to take responsibility for something, even if they may need support and guidance along the way.
Ultimately, John believes inclusive leaders must face the fact that the way organisations recruit people and the preconceptions they have about what talent looks like is often based on familiarity and similarity.
"It's as much based on personal comfort – whether I would feel comfortable working with someone, whether I have to learn new things to work with a person who is different – versus whether they're actually good," he says.
"I know people are very interested in winning. I want to win. But it's not just about that; I look at my life and the richness offered to me by the weird and wonderful collection of people I know. It's amazing. Everybody could have that."
John Amaechi, founder of APS Intelligence
I bank with Investec for a reason. I moved from somewhere else. That's what happens when you find people who act congruently with the values that really resonate. People will vote with their feet. I voted with my feet.

Funding Provided for Kent Co Wastewater Treatment Project
By Terry Rogers

On Wednesday, July 2, United States Senators Tom Carper and Chris Coons joined USDA Rural Development Director, Bill Cowan, to announce federal funding that will improve wastewater systems in Kent County. The project, funded by the USDA Rural Development Program, will help protect the health and safety of families while also providing significant clean water benefits for the Murderkill River and Delaware Bay. The announcement was made at the Kent county Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant located on Milford Neck Road in Milford.
"This is the last piece of the puzzle," said Hans Medlarz, Director of Kent County Public Works. "We began this in 2010, and we have been working with the state to do site specific research in conjunction with the University of Delaware. Through this research, we have learned that there are some nutrients that we do not need to spend money to treat, such as nitrogen as the marshes contribute a significant amount of nitrogen to the waterways. However, we also learned that phosphorus is a nutrient we must control. By performing this research, we can save the county money by eliminating tests that are unnecessary."
Mr. Medlarz also explained that the final phase of the project would serve low income areas where homeowners are dealing with failing septic systems. The funding from the federal government will allow the county to serve these areas that previously could not be served. The purpose of the funding is to construct, enlarge, extend or otherwise improve water or waste disposal facilities, and the priority must be toward median household income areas of less than $23,050 annually.
"About 260 families are going to have cleaner, safer groundwater and be able to eliminate failing septic systems at a price they can afford because of this project," said Senator Chris Coons. "The idea that you are doing your own research is impressive as it allows you to eliminate treatment costs that are unnecessary. I am happy to support and celebrate the work being done here."
Senator Tom Carper said that Kent County was able to benefit due to the three Cs – communication, collaboration and compromise.
"This project is a prime example of these three Cs," Senator Caper said. "There was an extensive amount of communication necessary to get this off the ground and significant collaboration between many different federal and state agencies. I can guarantee there was also a lot of compromise as well. The fact that it is also energy efficient is also beneficial as it is easier to maintain."
Several members of Kent County Levy Court were also on hand for the announcement, including Brad Eaby of District 2, Eric Buckson of District 4, Jody Sweeney of District 5 and Terry Pepper of District 6.
"This facility has not always been a great neighbor," said Mr. Pepper. "The odor emanating from here was very bad at times. Today, you can see the significant difference."
After the announcement, Senator Carper joined Tom Gates, an employee of Public Works in performing a process reading at the plant.
"This project could not have been completed without what I call the "four Ps," said Bill McGowan. "The people who brought this phase of the project to fruition, Kathy Beisner, Lisa Fitzgerald and Hans. Our partnership with the federal and state government agencies. The programs that allowed these 28 projects to be completed through Rural Development. The final P is for place. Delmarva is full of small towns and every one of them is a jewel. Every town needs the infrastructure to make it work, whether it is electric, quality water or waste management."

Firmer, and more luxurious than ever, the Boulder Dreamton mattress is everything its wool and cotton counterpart is, but with 15% more cotton and twice as many tufts for a firm mattress that's all about support.
The firmest mattress we make, the Boulder is comprised of a 100% organic cotton core with a single layer of our pure wool. Deliciously solid, the Boulder starts as thin as three inches in our Stowaway size, and can be made up to eight inches thick.
From Cot to California King — and in custom sizes, too — these all natural mattresses offer an organic and hypoallergenic alternative in almost every size.
Where cotton goes to get its degree, GOTS-certified organic cotton is held to the highest standards for health and sustainability. The core of our Dreamton Boulder mattresses are made of endless fluffy layers of 100% pesticide-free organic cotton raised sustainably, from our farms to your bed.
Here at White Lotus Home, we hold our shepherds to the highest standards of quality and ethics. Our sheep are raised on rotating pastures to prevent erosion and overgrazing, and their beautiful wool is never treated with chemicals or flame retardants. Wrapped in a layer of the finest wool we source, the Boulder Dreamton mattresses are naturally antimicrobial and dust mite resistant, and require no flame retardant chemical treatments to be safe. Wool is comfortable in the summer and winter, thanks to its natural insulative properties.
We absolutely love this mattress. It is so supportive, and I love knowing that I am sleeping on a health-promoting bed.
Some clients like to order the 3" Stow version of any mattress to use as a Japanese Futon. If you would like a specific dimension, please email us at info@whitelotushome.com and we can supply you with a custom quote.
Mainly the thickness (futon 5" and mattress 6") and side panels that contain handles which help in flipping or rotating your mattress.

Titans QB Ryan Tannehill (ankle) listed as questionable, will be game-time decision vs. Chiefs
The status of Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill remains up in the air heading into the weekend.
Coach Mike Vrabel said Friday that Tannehill was limited in practice and added that there is no decision on the QB's status for Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs, noting he remains day to day. The team listed the passer as questionable to play.
Tannehill missed last week's game, a victory over Houston, due to an ankle injury suffered in Week 7. The signal-caller was limited in Wednesday's practice this week and didn't participate Thursday.
Tannehill's status was similarly unclear a week ago, as he was listed as questionable on Friday before being ruled out on Saturday. The Titans could make a similar Saturday decision this week, depending on how much Tannehill can participate in tomorrow's walkthrough before the club heads to Kansas City.
If Tannehill is unable to play, rookie Malik Willis would make his second start of the season. Willis completed just 6 of 10 pass attempts for 55 yards and an INT in his first start as the Titans leaned on the ground game, rushing for 314 yards — 219 from Derrick Henry — against Houston.
Facing a vastly superior opponent this week, the Titans will hold out hope Tannehill's ankle will allow him to play in a matchup of two 5-2 clubs on Sunday Night Football.

Any tips beside pray. I'm not healthy enough for a transplant, and don't require back surgery. Oxycodone helps a lot, yet it's hard to obtain the correct dose.
Oxycodone 10/325 is the only thing I have found to truly help w/ the back pain. It is hard to find unless you have a truly understanding Doctor. Morphine only makes me feel like a lazy tode and I want to be able to get up and do something constructive. Get your doctor to perscribe the 10/325 and I think it will help. I can't get my doctor to perscribe it. He will only give me 15mg morphine and 5/325 oxycodone (percocet). Must find another doctor/source.
In the same boat. Been doing this+5 years now. And all of a sudden I get well you don't need these. THis will work Better. Wrong. Thanks doc. Time for a new one.
5/325 and 10/325 oxycodone or otherwise known as percocet is a breakthrough medication. It contains 5mg or 10mg of oxycodone (oxycontin) and 325mg of Tylenol. Its not really meant to be used on a continual basis for pain control. Its only meant to be used for acute stages of pain issues or for breaking through pain control of chronic pain suffers. The oxy in that pill form is an instant release, hence breakthrough medication. For chronic pain sufferers or long term pain issues you should not rely on that instant release drug as the only pharmaceutical therapy. A slow release form of oxycodone is a much better form of slowly releasing the medication into your body. If you take percocet too long it can have negative side effects including addiction but for sure you will become dependent on them. You will also become dependent on the slow release form of that medication but it will be much less difficult to overcome the dependency than people who have been on the instant release form of that drug.
There are other medications too that combined with oxy can work well at treating chronic pain including pain blockers like Lyrica and Gabapentin. Its difficult to find the right dosage for each person that will control pain and not have too many side effects but given time your body will likely overcome the side effects that those types of drugs create. I suffered from side effects like brain fog, groggy and lethargic feeling, dry mouth, ringing in the ears, blurred vision and a general impaired feeling but after a few months on those medications the side effects wore off.
I recommend you try not to become dependent on Percocet for pain control and only use them when your suffering from extreme pain.

Billie Joe Armstrong's First Beer Pong Game Was With Post Malone
Lauryn Schaffner
Theo Wargo, Getty Images /
Back in the days prior to social distancing, we were able to have parties and play games with each other, like beer pong. Do you remember your first time playing? Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong claimed he played his first game with rapper Post Malone.
Adam Degross, Post's tour manager, posted a video on Instagram of the two of them playing beer pong, which apparently aired on Cartoon Network's late-night programming, Adult Swim. Armstrong then commented on the video saying, "I played my first game of beer pong with [Post Malone]."
The two continued on for a brief exchange, with Degross suggesting the vocalist play a second round with the rapper. "Social distancing beer pong... beer tennis," Armstrong replied. Maybe we'll eventually get to see that rematch once life goes back to normal.
"How is this metal?"
Well, you have the lead singer of Green Day playing an alcoholic game with the metal-loving rap sensation who's done several collaborations with Ozzy Osbourne. So, yeah, that sounds like a party we'd want to partake in.
See the Instagram post below.

Cristiano Ronaldo | £43M Property Empire
You will lose count if you start counting the number of fascinating things about the only football champ Cristiano Ronaldo. The 36-year-old star current player with Manchester United leads a life that is indeed a dream to the majority of people. His way of living is famous in the football world and all across the globe.
No wonder that with all that fame and money, Cristiano and his family are leading a luxurious life. You will agree that Ronaldo's life is no less than a fairytale if you see the stats. Here are a few fun facts about the most celebrated football icon.
We all have plans for our retirement, like building a small house by the beach, going on a world tour, or living with the kids in the countryside. But did you see someone planning a retirement mansion? Well, you can now see one in the form of a £7 million retirement mansion in the Quinta da Marinha region of Cascais.
What if you have a private plane to travel across the world? The multi-millionaire footballer owns a private plane worth £20 million. Now that is a big deal. Other than the plane, Ronaldo also owns multiple lightning-quick supercars that include two Rolls Royce, two Lamborghini, two McLaren, three Ferraris, a Bentley Continental GT speed, a Range Rover Sport SVR, a Koenigsegg CCX, a Porsche 911 Turbo S, Mercedes-AMG's and many more, that are collectively around $25 million worth.
Cristiano Ronaldo has scored over 800 official goals for his club and country as of 2021. His most expensive property is a stylish condo in New York City's Trump Tower, which he bought for a whopping $18.5 million back in 2015. Other than that, Ronaldo also owns two Lisbon flats worth £6.5 million, Riverside estate worth £2.3 million, Madrid Stronghold worth £4.8 million, Marbella holiday home worth £1.2 million, and many more.
The footballer has a net worth of more than $500 million and is ranked no. 1 on the Forbes list of top 10 most paid soccer players, as of 2021, with an average pay of around $531,000 per week. The number of sponsorships he gets is insane, including football boots, sportswear, and so on. He is the joint-top earner in the Premier League.
The Portuguese professional footballer has a considerable fan base that is not hidden from anyone. Cristiano became the most followed sportsman as 385 million people follow him on Instagram alone, along with 151 million on Facebook and over 92 million on Twitter. Even if you're not a football fan, you will fall for Ronaldo, one way or the other.
All this money, but does Ronaldo lead a happy and content life? Yes, he does. How fortunate is he to have a successful career and a family life. Ronaldo and his wife Georgina Rodriguez will soon welcome their fifth and sixth child in this world. We wish the family to welcome more happiness in 2022!

FAWE supports vocational training of two girls
Nkoranza (B/A), Nov. 28, GNA - Two parents in the Nkoranza district have commended the Ghana Chapter of the Forum for African Women Education (FAWE), an NGO, for supporting the education of their wards. Madam Akua Addae from Nkoranza and Madam Adwoa Fordjour from Tom, made the commendation at a meeting with the FAWE Focal persons, Mr. John Kofi Amoah and Madam Sophia Adalingeah at Nkoranza. FAWE supported Miss Lydia Boahemaa, 18 and Miss Lydia Serwaa, 19 to enrol into the Leadership Training Centre at FAWE Secretariat in Accra in 2002 to study dressmaking, batik tie-and-dye printing and home management.
The organisation paid for all their needs during the three-year course.
The Focal persons advised the two girls to shun pre-marital sex and rather concentrate on their vocation and establish themselves after the course.
They appealed to the Nkoranza District Assembly to help the trainees set up themselves after graduating from the school, noting that a major challenge facing them was lack of capital.

We Predict 2023 Trends & What to Leave Behind in 2022

It's officially the last day of 2022, and we are here to share what trends we predict for 2023 – along with which ones we plan to leave behind. This year a lot of trends were discovered and influenced through social media. Platforms took over the shoe game and who wasn't wearing a mini-skirt this summer? It was also a year for comebacks from brands like Coach and Ugg.
We have asked some of our favorite creators what they think the hottest trends of 2023 will be, and what trends they plan to leave behind in 2022.
Bethany's 2023 Predictions
What to say hello to in 2023: "Lots of sheer outfits, big tulle silhouettes, and more Barbie pink!"
What to leave behind in 2022: "Ballet Flats"

Tiffany's 2023 Predictions
What to say hello to in 2023: "Whether we're into platforms or not I definitely see them being a big trend all 2023! The colors of 2023 I predict are shades of green and blue. P.S. I'm not complaining because these colors make me happy, it gives me a vacay kind of vibe and I love it!"
What to leave behind in 2022: "I'm leaving behind, but only for a bit are Skinny Jeans! Give me all the baggy denim jeans because I truly am loving them right now. I'm not saying I'll completely throw out all my skinny jeans, but I will be moving them to the back of my closet for 2023."

Tomar's 2023 Predictions
What to say hello to in 2023: "A trend I am really starting to see come back are neck accessories beside necklaces (skinny scarves, rose chokers, pendant chokers) these have slowly crept their way in during 2022 but I feel like they are going to become a lot more popular in the new year!"
What to leave behind in 2022: "A trend I am leaving behind in 2022 is micro mini skirts. Personally, they are not very wearable and not very comfortable to do anything other than take pictures in."

from the Hinda Incentives family to yours!
So what has been big with consumers? Generally speaking, consumers have really taken hold of a "back to basics" mentality. The demand for products that fulfill basic necessities have taken precedent over ones that are regarded as "higher-end" or luxury" ones. Some of the focus products at the 2010 Home+Housewares show included single serve coffee makers, steam mops and cookware, especially celebrity chef cookware lines.
Who Could Be Thinking of Incentives At A Time Like This? You.
It wasn't unusual for several companies to cut back (or even eliminate) company year end bonuses and the economy had a lot to do with it. However, it's been said that noncash rewards have proven to be a much more cost effective way to drive behavior. You can accomplish more in influencing motivation using merchandise as a reward/recognition tool than cash while spending just as much - if not less - money in the process.
After nearly 40 years...we've still got it!
Things have come a long way since Hinda had its first set of offices on Printer's Row. In the 1970s, Hinda purchased 120 Casio calculators to qualify as a distributor, convincing an auto parts company to use them as an incentive for selling parts. Now Hinda boasts an inventory of over 3,500 products in our current 75,000 square foot facility. We've gone from Therese Brisard manually writing down invoices onto index cards to pioneering online incentive programs.

The 'Brief History' series of articles
Produced by the Society to give a quick, informative overview to important aspects of our local history.
A Brief History of the Crouch End Clock Tower
The clock tower, a much loved if not exactly architecturally distinguished building, was erected in 1895 in 'appreciation and recognition of the public services' of Henry Reader Williams (1822-97). [Read more…] about A Brief History of the Crouch End Clock Tower
A Brief History of Wood Green
Present day Wood Green forms part of the London Borough of Haringey and is situated about six miles north of the City of London. [Read more…] about A Brief History of Wood Green
A Brief History of Bounds Green and Bowes Park
The mainly residential districts of neighbouring Bounds Green and Bowes Park form the north-east corner of the London Borough of Haringey with a small part in the south-east corner of the Borough of Enfield. [Read more…] about A Brief History of Bounds Green and Bowes Park
A Brief History of Alexandra Palace and Park
The story of Alexandra Palace and Park is integral to that of Wood Green. This Victorian enterprise has been the subject of many trials and tribulations, but it has, nevertheless, dominated Wood Green from its lofty position on its western boundary. [Read more…] about A Brief History of Alexandra Palace and Park
A Brief History of the Old Schoolhouse
Erected in 1848 as Hornsey Infants' School for St. Mary's Parish, the Old Schoolhouse, designed by architect John Henry Taylor, is now the home of the Hornsey Historical Society. Although the society moved into the building in 1981, the Old Schoolhouse has a long history. [Read more…] about A Brief History of the Old Schoolhouse
A Brief History of Hornsey Town Hall
Hornsey's history as a parish and administrative area goes back to at least the 13th century. For most of that time, Hornsey was a rural backwater in the county of Middlesex but, with the coming of the railways in the 1850s, developers realised the opportunity to create a suburb. [Read more…] about A Brief History of Hornsey Town Hall
A Brief History of St Mary's Church and Tower
Today, all that remains of St Mary's Church is its bell tower, standing in the former churchyard, a little back from Hornsey High Street. St Mary's Tower is a focal point for the local community and a poignant reminder of the long history of this site as a place of worship. [Read more…] about A Brief History of St Mary's Church and Tower
A Brief History of Hornsey Historical Society
There had been talk of the need for a local history society in Hornsey as long ago as 1909 but despite early efforts nothing was achieved until 1971. On 29th April that year, in response to a poster designed and distributed by Margaret Gellay, a young local teacher, about fifty people attended a meeting in Hornsey Library. [Read more…] about A Brief History of Hornsey Historical Society
A Brief History of Stroud Green
The name Stroud Green signifies a wet, marshy place, overgrown with brushwood and liable to flooding. [Read more…] about A Brief History of Stroud Green
A Brief History of Muswell Hill
Until the end of the 19th century Muswell Hill remained a rural area of pasture, woods and open spaces situated on the edge of a glacial plateau overlooking the Thames and Lea valleys. [Read more…] about A Brief History of Muswell Hill
