It is always good to see retired members who are still active and want to support the activities of their own branch. This was the case on the 30 June when the Lambeth branch joined in with other unions in support of the NUT day of action. I saw at least 4 retired members from the Lambeth branch march with the protesters and take part in the gathering opposite the Tate library. Retired members can and indeed are a force that can link up with the rest of the branch in support of action. Unison very correctly identified this a few years ago and has put some effort and resources in organising this part of the union. My own branch will continue the good work.
