Manchester Branch has taken the decision to hold our Annual General Meeting both physically and virtually in 2022. This is an important event for the branch and all members are strongly encouraged to attend so they can participate in the democratic, decision-making process which will set branch policy for the coming year.
The final agenda for this meeting is included in the latest issue of the branch magazine, the Mancunion, and a paper copy has been posted out to every member in time for our AGM. We have also sent out an electronic version of the magazine to all members with an email address recorded, along with the previous issue which includes the branch officers’ annual report.
UNISON Manchester Branch Secretary, Carl Greatbatch, has recorded the following short invitation video for our branch AGM this year.
To improve participation at this meeting we are running an aggregate AGM which will provide three opportunities for members to attend as follows:
Physical Meeting
- Lunchtime Session – Starting at 12:30pm on Tuesday 29 March 2022
Virtual Meetings
- Evening Session – Starting at 5:30pm on Tuesday 29 March 2022
- Lunchtime Session – Starting at 12:30pm on Wednesday 30 March 2022
For voting purposes please ensure that you only attend ONE of these meetings.
