We're almost home which wraps up our Summer Leadership meeting! 🙌🏻 Make sure to keep an eye out as we push further for apprentice voice to be heard across the UK, & not just in the small print! Thanks to @julianamno0r, @VPEricaRamos & @ApprenticeVoice for joining us this weekend!
@StephenMcCartn9@nusuk@NUS_USI@beardySLO@NRCCollege I honestly can't thank NRC and it's student union and staff enough, they've always been extremely accommodating and very supportive with NSoA work, hats off to you @StephenMcCartn9 and @la_beacom you are both fantastic
“A lot of your colleagues won’t know what trade unions are. It is our job to change things. Why do we take action? Because if we don’t things will not change! Nothing has ever happened because the establishment turned around and decided things should be better.”
@beardySLO None of it would be possible without you and Arran, youse genuinely don't get enough credit for the massive amount of work you guys put in behind the scenes to make the whole thing come together
“Apprentices are often overlooked and seen as hard to reach. @nusuk set up the National Society of Apprentices to represent Apprentices. I got involved through staff in my college who brought me to an event where I met @beardySLO “ - @SeanMcNamee112
“This is not a unique experience. We talk to Apprentices across the U.K. who are in similar situations. The National Society want Apprentices to join their trade unions because the power of collectivism is how we will make lives better for Apprentices” - @ArranCottam from NSoA
“I injured my back at work. My boss wouldn’t let me have the time off that I needed for my back to heal. When I needed time off he accused me of lying to work in another job and threatened to take me to court because he didn’t want to pay me sick pay” @SeanMcNamee112 from NSoA
Now we have @SeanMcNamee112 and @ArranCottam from the National Society of Apprentices! Talking about apprentice workers rights. What the livestream here: https://t.co/PBXQ1DiWNj
