Meeting to discuss cuts in the voluntary sector - Wednesday 13th April

Pay freezes, pay cuts, redundancies, attacks on terms and conditions are happening all over Scotland in the voluntary sector.
One example of this is the impact of the personalisation agenda in Glasgow which has seen the Council impose massive cuts in the budgets of service users.
So far most voluntary organisations in Glasgow involved in learning disability services are responding by passing on the cuts to staff in one way or another. 
UNISON is calling a meeting to look at how we can respond to this in a more co-ordinated way and the UNISON Quarriers Branch has kindly agreed to host the meeting.

The meeting will be at 10.00am on Wednesday 13th April at the
UNISON Office, 4th Floor, Empire House, 131 West Nile Street, Glasgow G1 2RX.
