@howard_c2@JusticeUnions Unfortunately yes. Our staff were made redundant with effect from today. Our learning centres are now closed.

That's it - the end has come for POA Learning.
Can the last person to leave please turn out the lights...
We have enjoyed every minute of supporting our learners and will miss you all!
Thank you and all the best for the future.

Following the government’s decision to withdraw support for the Union Learning Fund staff at unionlearn and the TUC have been working hard to minimise the cuts impact, and continue to offer high quality support for unions, reps, and workplace learners.

The decision to axe the Union Learning Fund has been well documented.
Hear from two learners from the Isle of Wight and how support from @POALearning has helped them tremendously.

I've written to the Business Secretary alongside @AndyMcDonaldMP and @KateGreenSU to make clear the Government must reverse the decision to scrap the Union Learning Fund. This politically-motivated decision will damage training prospects at a time when reskilling is vital.
This week is National @CareersWeek , the biggest celebration of career across the UK – and the ideal time to have a look at unionlearn’s packed webpages full of resources and ideas to build your career. #NCW2021

The govt's plans to cut the Union Learning Fund means hundreds of thousands of workers will miss out on skills and training.
The government must reverse its decision immediately.

Last autumn the govt announced plans to cut @unionlearn fund.
This week we spoke to union learning rep Sue Mann about why lifelong learning opportunities are so important.

If you want to understand why the Union Learning Fund should be part of the government’s solution to our skills shortages and not part of the problem then read this and lobby the #chancellor to reinstate the ULF funding #SaveUnionLearning
The UK needs to raise workers’ skills if we are to have a strong recovery from the pandemic and recession.
The union movement wants to play our part, so we hope the government will reconsider to proposal to end the Union Learning Fund.

Over the weekend the Union Learning Fund had some fantastic coverage in The Guardian - highlighting stories of individual learners that make workplace learning so important, and why we should all call on the government to #SaveUnionLearning. #HeartUnions
