UCU Congress Fringe Meeting – all welcome

The UCU Solidarity Movement is organising a second meeting on USS during UCU Congress – all welcome, you need not be a delegate to congress.

The Higher Education Sector Conference will only have a limited time available for discussion, and will focus solely on the motions and amendments tabled for debate. The UCU Solidarity Movement meeting will allow for a wider discussion on USS, and allow members and HESC delegates to consider at greater depth how to develop the UCU’s campaign to defend USS.

Speakers include:

  • Sam Marsh – USS national negotiator
  • Sarah Joss – Vice President Heriot Watt UCU
  • Tim Wilson – UCU National Dispute Committee and Vice Chair Dundee UCU
  • Marion Hersh – NEC and alternate negotiator

Candidates standing for election as USS negotiators are encouraged to join the meeting, to speak and/or field questions.

Please share the event widely among your networks and on social media, and make sure your UCU branch is represented at the meeting.
