New Faces

We are pleased to announce that we have two new reps, both from Corby Debt Centre.

Caroline Henderson was elected as a site rep in a ballot held in the run up to the Annual General Meeting. After years of the branch committee being dominated by middle aged, white,(overweight?) males (and yes I include myself in that category) it is great to see young enthusiastic members like Caroline taking a more active role. Without young activists coming through the branch, indeed the union, will not be able to thrive in the future.

Joanne Rhoden has also taken up the role of a Health and Safety rep. Her extensive health and safety training and experience is a real boost to the branch and to the members in Corby Debt Centre. We are really pleased to have her on board.

Sadly however we have lost the services of Paul Cross, who has been a site rep at Corby for the last year. He no longer feels that he can stay on as a rep, but we are grateful for the numerous personal cases he undertook and the excellent recruitment work that he did.
