Branch Suggestion Bin
The Branch Suggestion Bin is a new way for members to send in suggestions for the Branch. Your idea could be a new way we could support members, an idea for an event, training or projects, or something that you have identified as a problem in your job.
During Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter and at the AGM, the ideas will be voted on by members. The vote allows us to understand the priorities, opinions and appetite of our members for different work. Ideas which receive the most votes will be reviewed by the Committee with the aim of developing them into projects.
Ideas must be in the interest of members and aligned with the values of the union.
Ideas topics:
Issues you want to fix in the industry
