SUMMARY:TUC Women Chainmakers' Festival
DESCRIPTION:Taking place annually\, the Women Chainmakers’ Festival is a family friendly event bringing alive memories of the past whilst inspiring visions for the future through street theatre\, re-enactments\, live metalworking\, political stalls and speeches\, music\, children’s activities and entertainment. \nFeaturing national entertainers and speakers\, including a ‘Mary Macarthur’ in period costume delivering one of Mary’s rousing speeches and a procession of modern unions and ‘strikers’ dressed as Edwardian chainmakers\, the festival ensures that this historic episode is celebrated by the local community and trade unionists from all over the country. \nThere is much to celebrate and commemorate about the women Chainmakers of Cradley Heath and\, sadly\, their example and circumstances remains relevant to many working in Britain today. \nThe Chainmakers’ Festival brings the Black Country community together with the Trade Union movement. Through examining our history we can deliver a better future for women and our wider society.

SUMMARY:Behold Ye Ramblers - Townsend Theatre Productions - Moray
DESCRIPTION:‘Behold Ye Ramblers’ is the story of the beginnings of the struggle for the right to roam freely across open moors on ancient paths and enjoy the benefits of outdoor activities and pursuits. It’s a history based in the Clarion movement that in the 1890s onwards encouraged and celebrated healthy community activity such as cycling\, music and choral singing\, drama groups\, handicrafts\, whilst collectively building Clarion Houses as rural community centres to enable people to escape the daily grind of work and cramped city living. There are active Clarion Cycling Clubs and Choirs to this day! \nThis is a highly entertaining celebration through Music Hall\, poetry and song of the birth of The Clarion newspaper and the movement that grew in its name; of its founder Robert Blatchford and his self-styled journalism influenced by William Morris and Edward Carpenter; of his ability to convert hundreds of thousands to his collective vision\, including some of the richest in society\, such as the Countess of Warwick; and of the heroic working class disciples such as GHB Ward and his fellow activists from the Sheffield Clarion Ramblers that campaigned and trespassed for public access across Derbyshire’s moorlands. \nFind out how this happened\, who fought for our Right to Roam and be entertained at the same time. \nA show for all to see and to be determined to be able to walk alone and with others!

SUMMARY:The anti-corruption capital of the world?
DESCRIPTION:This spring\, IPPR will host a major conference on combating transnational kleptocracy\nThe UK has made considerable progress on tackling economic crime and illicit finance since Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.

SUMMARY:International Day against Homophobia\, Biphobia and Transphobia
DESCRIPTION:Unite is proud to recognise International Day against Homophobia\, Biphobia and Transphobia on 17 May. Known as IDAHOBIT for short\, this date was chosen as it commemorates the date of the decision to remove homosexuality from classification as a mental illness by the World Health Organisation in 1990. The main purpose of IDAHOBIT is to raise awareness of ongoing discrimination\, violence and persecution of LGBT+ people across the world. \nResearch by Stonewall\, the national LGBT charity found that one in five LGBT people have experienced a hate crime because of their sexual orientation in the past year and over half of trans people have been subjected to a hate crime due to their gender identity. \nAround a quarter of LGBT people avoid some streets due to safety concerns and 13 per cent have been discriminated against in a bar\, restaurant or club venue. Trans people in particular still experience appalling levels of abuse on social media and are on the receiving end of misinformation and direct attacks from TV and print media. \nThat’s why Unite Equalities continues to work hard to campaign for more inclusive workplaces and safer communities for LGBT+ people across the country. We’re particularly keen for more LGBT+ Unite members to get involved\, contact your regional equalities officer for further information.

SUMMARY:Festival of Learning
DESCRIPTION:Festival of Learning (previously Adult Learners Week) is an opportunity to celebrate\, promote and advance all forms of adult learning. \nUsdaw’s support and participation in the event has increased year on year and the event is a tribute to the imagination and dedication of the learning teams across the divisions. From week long events to one-off tasters\, Usdaw Union Learning Reps (ULRs) put on a breathtaking range of events for members across the country. \nFrom apprenticeships and job swaps to British Sign Language and healthy feet sessions\, there’s something for everyone. \nSome regions co-ordinate their activity around key themes such as the Six Book Challenge or NVQs and apprenticeships. Others promote specific courses such as British Sign Language and English and Maths. Several link in with regional campaigns such as Check Out Learning and promoting Usdaw’s legal services. \nActivity covers the full spectrum of workplaces from large distribution centres to small retail stores. Larger workplaces with a long history of organising learning might run a series of events spread over several days. Smaller workplaces just starting out may run surveys or recruitment for specific courses.
