ULearn magazine always brings you inspiring news from across UNISON, and this year’s edition is no exception. We’re finding out about learning events celebrating 2024’s Year of the LGBT+ Worker and finding out how projects that began in 2023, the Year of Black Workers, are flourishing now.

We’re discovering how UNISON members are finding confidence and expanding their skills – whether that’s getting to grips with the digital world or becoming a workplace rep.

And of course there’s plenty of information about how you can discover UNISON College opportunities for yourself.
