About us
University of Bristol UNISON Branch is run by a branch committee and supported by skilled staff and is fully integrated into the wider network both regionally and nationally. We negotiate on behalf of our members for better pay and conditions, help individuals in trouble, and campaign for a safer, fairer society.
Get involved
All members of Bristol University UNISON branch can attend branch meetings, vote and stand in branch elections and get involved in our campaigns and activities. We are always looking for people who feel they can contribute to the branch and to helping other members. This could be a regular commitment or just the occasional hour or so. We also provide training courses and support for our reps and officers.
