I’m very proud to say I’ve been elected at the senior vice president of UNISON.

I’m proud to serve alongside President Catherine McKenna and junior vice president Debbie Rowden.

To serve our union of a million members is an absolute privilege.

I’m very glad to say I have once again been re-elected to UNISON’s National Executive Council (NEC).

It’s a great honour to represent health workers in UNISON.

So grateful for all the support and the votes from members.

Join us on this solidarity action on Saturday 22 Feb. 

In line with UNISON conference policy, we have called for the immediate withdrawal of Russian troops and a peaceful end to the conflict. 

Solidarity with Ukraine and all workers affected by Russia's illegal invasion. 🇺🇦✊

Yesterday was an interesting 1st day of UNISON’s Women’s Conference.
The anti-trans protesters came. And left pretty soon afterwards.
Then in conference, women members voted unopposed to support trans inclusion, reinforcing their commitment to embracing trans women.
UNISON Women say no to hate! 🏳️‍⚧️

NEW: Huge poll by More in Common finds the public support assisted dying by 5 to 1.

Massive week for Parliament as it grapples with what could be the biggest social change in a generation.

I thought it was easier to talk about my thoughts on assisted dying in a video - here’s a clip. The link to the full video and to email your MP is you agree below

UNISON’s young members launched a campaign this summer called Young Members’ Mental Health Matters! It aims to highlight the impact of mental health in the workplace.

Which is something all workers can benefit from too!
