How to become active in UNISON

Our animated film charts how a public service worker can develop and progress as a trade union activist within UNISON.

We follow Ruby, a public service worker and UNISON member, on just one path she might take as a trade union activist: from health and safety rep, to one of her branch’s representative on its regional council, from first-time speaker at national delegate conference, to member of the union’s main policy-making body, the NEC.

And all the while, she’s “learning so much about the union, about her workmates and about herself.”
