Join us on Monday, 15 June 2026 (10am – 4pm) at TUC Congress House for an in‑person training and networking event bringing together organisers, officers and activists committed to winning for outsourced workers. 

Developed through the Organisers Network and as part of the Our Work Matters campaign, the day will share practical skills, real‑world case studies and space to connect, collaborate and build confidence to organise and win insourcing campaigns. 

A vital opportunity to learn from each other, strengthen union coordination and organising for outsourced workers.

Registration essential - sign up now to secure your space.

Open to officials and activists from TUC affiliated unions only who organise outsourced workers or are outsourced workers. The day is primarily aimed at full time officials but lay reps are also welcome.
