New award scheme for learning reps

The TUC Educational Trust is sponsoring the George Guy Award for learning reps who have helped members into learning.

Any kind of learning – union education, vocational training, political education or personal development – is eligible for consideration, and the award will consist of a £300 bursary to be spent on books or on course fees to support further study.

The award celebrates George Guy, a union activist who believed that workers could better themselves through their skills and their solidarity.

For an application form, e-mail Liz Rees at [email protected]. The closing date is 10 June.
