Fantastic news from PCS Conference ✊♀️

Conference voted to strengthen PCS support for the Women’s Chainmakers’ Festival, recognising it deserves the same national recognition as Tolpuddle and the Durham Miners’ Gala as the only celebration of women in the trade union movement 💜

Huge thanks to DWP Birmingham South for moving the motion, and to Home Office Midlands and HMRC West Mercia for speaking in support, along with many other Midlands branches who have actively supported.

Now let’s make this year’s festival bigger than ever, come along and celebrate the women who helped build our movement!
