Kindness out of Thomas Cook collapse

The act of kindness out of Thomas Cook collapse is touching after the travel company declared bankrupt after serving in holidays industry for 178 years.

Let take a few moment to recognize the kindness of people stepping in to help Thomas Cook staff and customers.

A Thomas Cook staff even after she received the news that she is officially unemployed, she still turns up to work to help Thomas Cook customers. You are a star, Lucky Beatrice. I salute your kindness.

Passengers raised £5000 for Thomas Cook staff after they become aware of the news that the staff would not get paid and this was their last flight. Another story a woman raised £650 for Thomas Cook staff. These passengers have a heart of gold. Thank you for your kindness out of Thomas Cook collapse.

It is also very kind of other airlines like Easyjet, Flybe, Tui, British Airway and Virgin to offer jobs to Thomas Cook staff. Kudos for your kindness.

Sir Richard Branson said declare it in virgin.com website that their wonderful teams at Virgin Atlantic will do all they can do to find people jobs and bring stranded people home. He is such a kind person to encourage his organisation to help people in need during this time. Bravo Sir Richard Branson.

Another way to help sole breadwinners of Thomas Cook Staff

Another way you can help Thomas Cook staff especially is that if you know they are single parents or sole breadwinners for their family with school age children consider paying for their children school meals. This would help the parents not worry about their children go hungry at school.

I know for primary school meal per day is about £2 for secondary school, the school meal spending is capped at £5 per day for state school.

For private school children, their school fees significantly higher. Hope more generous donors would help this group of parents too.

Children also require school uniforms and stationery. If you can somehow help in this area would be great for the sole breadwinners Thomas Cook staff.

You can be anonymous donors if you do not want your names be revealed.

According to Guardian, directors could face inquiry with regard to their previous bonuses. You may also be interested to learn people who are bankrupt would be disqualified as UK company director for a long time.
