“To anyone considering the UNISON steward course, I wholeheartedly encourage you to take the plunge.”
Natasha, a new UNISON steward, writes after completing the Organising Steward course in Taunton.
“As someone who is quietly brave, I found the idea of attending the course alone a bit nerve-wracking, but knew it was something I could handle. What I didn’t anticipate was the incredible sense of community that would develop over just five days.
“I was truly touched by the wonderful people I met, individuals from diverse backgrounds who I might not have encountered otherwise. These connections became an integral part of my journey, and I hope I became a part of theirs as well.
“Our tutor’s knowledge and experience were evident from the very first session. I gained so much from this course, not just intellectually, but emotionally and spiritually. It wasn’t just about learning with my head; it was about learning with my heart and soul. My values were challenged and ultimately strengthened. This course was a transformative experience, and I believe it can be for you too.
“Take the leap, and you won’t regret it.”
