This might be a starting point:

Unpaid leave shouldn't be a problem given the family friendly nature of the business... :neutral:

Taking annual leave is an option but not ideal imo...

If finances are an issue the Rowntree Fund may be able to assist...

If management refuse paid leave then he would be entitled to take parental leave which is unpaid.

Advise that he contacts hr to get more accurate and detailed information.
