EEAST AGM Scheduled for Wednesday 18th March 2020 now cancelled.
UNISON EEAST branch member,
As you will be aware the health service is at the forefront of the UK’s response to the Covid19 pandemic. In the light of this a decision was taken on Friday 13th March to cancel UNISONs national health conference that the EEAST branch had delegates and visitors due to attend in early April 2020.
This cancellation has lead to a number of requests from UNISON members and reps in EEAST to consider the cancellation of the 2020 branch AGM. (A large gathering of ambulance employees set to take place during this pandemic.) The decision has been taken to cancel the EEAST branch AGM scheduled for 6.30pm on 18thMarch 2020.
The union needs to protect you and your families and we also know that you will want to prioritise the needs of our health services at this time.
Further information about processes will be added to the branch website and communicated to members.
One of the agenda points of the AGM was to ratify the list of nominated branch officers and UNISON stewards. There was one contested post and via a ballot of members this was won by Mike Hill who will be elected to the post of Branch chair. All other members standing for positions were nominated and seconded by a UNISON member. The following UNISON members have been nominated to be in place as branch officers or stewards for the year 2020/21 and will take commence their positions from 18th March 2020. If there are any concerns these can be directed to the Branch Secretary, Chair or Regional Organiser. An updated contact list of all new branch officers and reps will be updated on the UNISON EEAST branch website.
