As usual the event will be a fast-paced mix of world class speakers and local organising campaign case studies to inspire and equip members to build an even stronger workplace, branch and regional UNISON.
This year the event is themed around digital organising. But you don’t need digital skills or experience to attend. Just an enthusiasm for building union power! The event is open to all UNISON NW members so please circulate and encourage attendance.
