A Personal Letter to all School Support Staff

To all Schools Support Staff
From Rosemary Plummer
Writing in a personal capacity


Dear members

From Monday 26th March to Monday 23rd April you will be receiving your ballot papers at home in the election for Branch secretary of Islington UNISON branch.

In a personal capacity, I would urge you to vote for Jane Doolan. Jane has mentored me over several years. Jane is the best Branch Officer I have worked with.

Her qualities include empathy with people, she is non-judgemental, is one of the best negotiators who is able to fight her corner on behalf of all members of the branch.

Jane has been a branch officer in Islington for many years and branch secretary for thirteen years.  In that time she has stood up for ordinary low paid members whether in schools or other places. She is the leading woman branch officer in this branch. Our membership in Islington is 2459 strong and 70% of those members are women. This in itself is a good enough reason to re-elect her.

When Jane took over in 1999 this branch was in chaos. We were nearly bankrupt and Jane brought it back from the brink of collapse.  Therefore given her proven track record I am urging you all to vote for Jane Doolan in the election.

If you want to know more about Jane her annual report will be sent out soon, and there is a blog you can look at on the internet at:


 Please can you put this up in your staff room so that everyone can see it

Yours Sincerely

Rosemary Plummer
