CWU announce plans for TUC Young Workers Month

CWU Youth will be supporting the TUC Young Workers’ Month by:

• Announcing new  plans for mentoring of young  representatives following   a vigorous debate at  the CWU’s Annual Conference   earlier in the year;
• National  Postal Executive Committee  will convene in special session  with  youth activists  to  discuss and agree how the former can support the latter;
• A union-wide survey  of young members will take place  to  identify their key issues of concern
• A revised and expanded "how to" - guide for senior, older branch officers will be  published,  to help them  engage effectively with young members;
• Systematic region-by-region survey  work  to identify  new young activists will continue
• New youth orientated recruitment literature will be  launched, and a competition  to  design  a  new  youth-engagement poster will take place;
• Fully participating in  events organised by the TUC YWF  including the Big Youth Debate on  15 November,  including (hopefully)  a new podcast on the TUC YWF  by the Chair, Fern on the CWU website  www.cwuyouth.org
