The following has been supplied by the NW Regional Committee:
Colleagues,
The People's Assembly Against Austerity will stage a significant national demonstration in London on 21st June. Details can be found here.
We have a strictly limited budget to provide assistance with transport for PCS members. Given the limits on available funding, this is likely to be by coach only (via local People's Assembly groups) rather than reimbursement of individual rail fares.
We know of coaches being run from Manchester and Preston at this stage but will consider requests from other parts of the region if further People's Assembly groups or Trades Councils arrange them.
If any members of your Branch intend to travel to the event on one of these coaches, please provide their name, membership number and mobile phone number by return of email no later than Friday 6th June. Assuming the costs remain within budget we will confirm our arrangements to book places on your behalf by Monday 9th June.
The PCS Regional Banner (and other flags) will be available on request for any group of 2-4 members willing to take it to the event.
Regards,
Peter Middleman
NW Regional Secretary
Public & Commercial Services Union
***If any member of the Branch does wish to attend, please contact the Branch Office for details on how to contact Peter***
