  • TEESSIDE AIRPORT WORKERS DESERVE FAIR PAY!
    Tees Valley Combined Authority has invested £138 million into the airport since purchasing it in 2019 including acquisition costs, equity investment, loans and grants.  Tees Valley Combined Authority owns 75% of the Airport.   Public investment should lead to public benefit for the people of Teesside, starting with their pay!

Let’s send a message: Fair pay is not optional. It’s a right. Our Airport Our Pay

  • North West Ambulance Service; Answer THIS Emergency Call NOW!
    Without Contact Centre Educators there would be no people trained and ready to take our emergency calls.  North West Ambulance Service recognised that there was a recruitment and retention issue by introducing the additional payment to the educators role; the recruitment and retention issues haven't gone away and neither should the payment.

  • End the Gender Pension Gap for public sector women
    This will make a real difference to millions of women and shows what can be done when pension schemes take this issue seriously.  We are calling on all other public sector pension schemes- covering 2.5 million more women- to take the same positive steps.  The government says it wants to close the Gender Pension Gap- this is a chance to prove it by acting to help public sector workers and setting an example to the private sector. Government should be encouraging all schemes to adopt these changes.  Add your voice to put pressure on the public sector pension schemes to act.

  • Demand NHS Terms for NHS Work - Airedale Hospital
    SUPPORT STAFF AT AIREDALE HOSPITAL DEMAND EQUAL TERMS FOR EQUAL WORK Porters, domestics, catering and security staff who work for AGH Solutions (AGHS), a wholly owned subsidiary of Airedale NHS Foundation Trust, are calling for parity across the workforce. AGHS uses its subsidiary status to not honour the NHS Agenda for Change terms and conditions, despite using the same status to avoid VAT on procurement and other purchasing rules. Frontline workers are missing out on NHS pensions, sick pay rates, annual leave and Sunday working enhancements. GMB are calling for NHS terms for everyone working across AGH Solutions. Joe Wheatley GMB Organiser said: 'These workers are essential to the smooth running of the Airedale hospital. Without them patients would not be safe or seen. It cannot be right that they are being treated as second class workers.  'The last thing our members want to do is strike and disrupt patients lives, but we've been left with no choice' 'Its time Airedale and AGHS recognise the skills of these vital staff and get back to serious pay negotiations.'

  • STOP, THINK & REASSESS Dangerous Cuts to Firefighter Numbers
    If implemented, these cuts will: • Increase response times across the service. • Increase already unachievable workloads for members within our Officer section. Our Officer members are already working above their capacities, and this will only get worse with fewer numbers. • Reduce resilience to incidents across the service with fewer fire engines to call upon. • Undermine public safety and endanger firefighters' lives by forcing them to operate with fewer or delayed resources. Firefighters are proud of the work we do within our communites. But we cannot protect the public properly if we are not given the tools and support to do so. Fewer firefighters and fewer fire engines mean slower responses—and in our line of work, seconds cost lives. These cuts are so broad reaching that they will impact all communities across Hampshire and Isle of Wight.

  • Save Square Chapel for the people
    Square Chapel has a strong history of supporting community events and professional performances and is a popular venue in the local community.  Square Chapel was a popular arts centre with good community outreach prior to becoming insolvent during the covid pandemic. In September 2020, the venue was reopened when it was taken over by Wigan based Arts at the Mill. Square Chapel CIC was subsequently established.  In early February 2025, Square Chapel CIC announced the arts centre was closing and all future events were cancelled. Five months later, this valuable community asset remains closed and not serving the people of Halifax. Arts Council England (ACE) has now withdrawn its funding from Square Chapel. It has recently been announced that the Square Chapel building will be rented out to provide dressing rooms during the Piece Hall concert season. Square Chapel should provide good art, good work and be an artistic hub for the community. Halifax MP Kate Dearden has written to ACE supporting the reopening of Square Chapel and calling for the Halifax community to be involved in discussions about the future of the centre. We need this popular arts centre back! We need answers and we need the building to be back open and operating for the people of Halifax. Equity, TUC Yorkshire & Humber Creative and Leisure Industries Committee and Calderdale Trades Union Council are jointly calling for the public to have their say on the future of Square Chapel Arts Centre. Make your voice heard by joining the petition to Save Square Chapel for the people.

  • Fair Pay, No Delay, Restore the Local Pay Cuts TODAY
    💸 What does that mean for you?  • A worker earning just over £15,000 in 2012 lost around £300 per year from the cut.  • Even with NJC pay rises, they’re still earning less than they would have — because they started from a lower point.  • Over 12 years, that adds up to thousands of pounds in lost earnings.    ⚖️ This is about fairness.  Doncaster workers have been treated differently — and worse — than council workers in other areas.    We believe that’s unacceptable.  We believe that needs to change.  We’re calling on Doncaster Council to:  • Review the long-term impact of the 2012 cuts  • Begin a process to restore pay for affected staff  ✊ What can you do?  🖊️ Sign the petition today and show that Doncaster Council workers demand fair pay.

  • TFL Employee Diabetic Policy Demand
    TFL employees need diabetic policies because diabetes can impact work performance and productivity, potentially leading to increased absenteeism. By understanding the needs of employees with diabetes, TFL can implement suitable  reasonable adjustments and support systems that allow them to manage their condition effectively and remain productive at work. This includes recognizing that diabetes is often considered a disability under the Equality Act 2010, requiring employers to make reasonable adjustments.
