On Wednesday 4th March 2026 at 15:30 is our Annual General Meeting
PAID TIME OFF FOR COUNCIL EMPLOYEES HAS BEEN AGREED BY MANAGEMENT!
This meeting will take place in 5 Pancras Square, N1C 4AG in rooms 10.10 Kiln & 10.11 Grange & 10.12 Kingsgate on the 10th Floor.
Since 2021, we have held our AGMs either online or as a hybrid meeting and decided we would be hybrid again this year – although it would be great to all meet in person, we know that some members have regular working from home days so find attending via Teams easier.
Over the last year, our branch has grown in size, with over 380 new members since the AGM last year, which at a time where local government services and jobs are seriously underfunded is impressive.
We have also been increasing the number of reps and branch officers in the branch – although we are always on the lookout for more members to take that extra step! We are very proud that a majority of our branch officers and of our reps are Black and a majority of both groups are also women/LGBT+. We have a serious commitment in the branch to fighting oppression and actively speaking out against discrimination, so it’s brilliant to see this reflected in our structures.
Our national pay claim was submitted earlier this year, and we are waiting for a response from the employers – so keep a look out in our weekly emails or at our members’ meetings for updates.
In the last year, we have continued to be inundated with restructures – some small, some very large and involving hundreds of members. Many of us feel that working for Camden is one permanent restructure, and we know that there will be more to come as funding continues to be cut. Our involvement in the restructure process is a central part of what we do as a branch – we fight for every job because it matters both for you and for the service you provide. Our reps have put in huge amounts of work trawling through management documents, meeting with members to work out a response and in negotiating meetings with management. It’s not easy to make management change their plans, but where we think they will have a negative impact, we’ve had a good go!
We will discuss this plus lots of other topic of interest at the AGM and vote on motions to keep fighting for workers’rights, the defense of equal opportunities and against the far right.
We look forward se you all there.
