10-16 Feb this year is #HeartUnions week organised by the TUC. I was able to order materials online and set up a stall today in the main staff kitchen in one of our Housing offices in North London. I had booked a private office nearby for confidential discussions.
It was a little chaotic since there was also a lively celebration of Chinese New Year taking place at the same time but it was good to "fly the flag" for UNISON and have a chat with local reps, members and non members.
Many were interested in joining UNISON but most admitted that they know very little about unions and what they do. UNISON reps in my Housing Association are planning a series of similar events in our offices across the country as well as virtual team talks and social media.
