CWU March to save postal services in Nottingham

The Communication Workers Union organised a very successful march and rally in Beeston, Nottingham, on Saturday 19th February. The march went from the Royal Mail Centre in Beeston, through the centre of the suburb, to the rally at The New Venture Social Club near Beeston railway station.
Speakers included Cheryl Pidgeon, Midlands TUC Regional Secretary, Billy Hayes and Lee Baron from the CWU, and Nottingham South MP Lillian Greenwood.
The march was well supported by members of the CWU with many travelling from outside the region to  show their solidarity. There was also excellent support from other unions with UNISON and the National Union of Mineworkers banners flying proudly on the march.
