All you need to know about the NEC Elections 2025
and why you need to use your vote.
What does the NEC do?
The NEC is the body which runs Unison between National Delegate Conferences. It is the highest lay member body, made up of Unison members like you and me, who are voted in by all Unison members every 2 years.
All Branches get to nominate candidates standing to represent us, this nomination meeting is part of the normal Branch Committee meetings. As our Branch meeting was booked at the start of the nomination period, we added a 'special' meeting with a 1 item agenda towards the end of the nomination period. This allowed all candidates to contact the Branch and lodge their statements for us to consider.
The following candidates all sent in statements. Click on the image to read their nomination statements.
