Solidarity with striking ICU nurses and HCAs at the Royal Oldham Hospital

Solidarity with UNISON members at Oldham Royal Infirmary's ICU striking today and tomorrow because they get paid less than their normal rate for overtime, incentivising management to understaff the unit.

Our annual Manchester May Day Festival will take place this Sunday 3rd of May. We will assemble and march from Holt Town Tram Station (on the Ashton line) to the Mechanics Institute, where we will have music and speeches from the movement.

We will be led by the PCS Samba Band, as we march through the streets of Manchester.

Please do all you can to ensure we have a great turnout on the day, with as many branch banners flying as possible. This is our opportunity to get together and celebrate our movement.

We look forward to marching together with you on the day!

In solidarity,

Manchester Trades Council
