Picture of London UNISON convenor Gloria Hanson at our Regional Council meeting on Tuesday giving a cheque for a £5000 to the London CWU Regional Secretary, John Denton.This money is a donation to the London CWU official “hardship fund” from London UNISON. Even though industrial action has been suspended (for now!) London CWU members have taken over 20 days strike action and many claims for hardship from CWU members are being made.
12,500 workers lost £25 million in wages. Banks and finance companies are now threatening legal action against CWU members who have run into financial difficulty due to the strikes. To send money to the fund check detail here CWU London Divisional Committee – Hardship Fund and send to John Denton, Regional Secretary at CWU London Region, 2nd Floor, 33-41 Dallington Street, London EC1V OBB.
