We caught up with delegates to hear about their experience of #STUC24

Our #STUC24 has passed an emergency motion, condemning the Scottish Government for stealing £38 million allocated for enhanced sick pay, maternity and paternity pay for social care workers.

We're mobilising. Join us outside the Scottish Parliament on April 25th.
