The TUC’s Heart Unions week is an excellent way to promote the benefits of trade unionism and celebrate the work of unions in communities and workplaces. HeartUnions week is also a great way to continue the work of Prospect’s “I’m worth more than 1%” public pay sector campaign.

There are a number of ways you can get involved:

1. Share the reasons why you heart unions and the great work of Prospect – a poster to print out and use is available here
2. Share your pictures on social media using #heartunions don’t forget to tag @ProspectUnion too
3. Send an ecard to the Chancellor Phillip Hammond urging him to scrap the 1%pay cap for public sector workers 
4. Use this week as an opportunity to share the good work of unions and recruit more members
5. For more information about HeartUnions week visit  http://heartunions.org/

Last year over 3,500 Prospect members wrote to their MP urging them to pressure the Chancellor, Philip Hammond to scrap the 1% pay cap in the public sector. We know your campaigning work is having an impact as the government is showing some signs of movement, but we must keep up the pressure.

Can you write to Philip Hammond urging him to scrap the 1% pay cap for all public sector workers and to ensure adequate funding across our public services? Click here to write to the Chancellor.
