UNISON NEC Elections: Start today 21 April 2025. Let's build a better union with Members Together.

 

From tomorrow onwards, 1.3 million UNISON members will receive ballot papers sent to their home addresses for the election of their NEC (National Executive Council) representatives for the next 2 years. 

This is a really important election for all UNISON members. The NEC is your "Parliament" and it decides upon really important bread and butter issues for the union and its members. 

Such as how the union plans to win better pay, pensions and terms and conditions for you. How it will protect your jobs and your health & safety. Ensure meaningful equality and effective representation when you have a  issue at work. Make sure you get value for money from your subs and that the Government listens and reacts to your concerns. 

I will post further on the problems we face in our union and how we need to change the current leadership, who hold on to power by tiny minority. Above is a photo of some of the Members Together campaign who are restanding with others for the NEC (your truly included). 

Below is a list of NEC candidates who support https://www.memberstogether.org.uk/. 

While there are other very good independent candidates also standing please consider voting for the list below. 

All members will have a vote for their region, service group, black and disabled candidates. Young members will also have a vote for their forum candidates.
