 As the North West Regional Women’s Committee (NWRWC) Secretary, I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and give you an idea of what we do.
The Committee meet 4 times per year and meetings are held at various venues across the Northwest. The venues are usually Manchester for the AGM in January, Rusholme in April, Preston in July and Liverpool in October.
I am an Assistant Secretary and the Women’s Officer for Manchester Combined Branch on a 4 day a week basis.
I also hold the post of Regional Women’s Secretary and am on the CWU’s Women’s Advisory Committee (WAC) too.
I work for Openreach (a BT group company) in the Work Flow and Allocation team based at Ashton-Under-Lyne, Manchester and am also a Business Unit Trainer for Openreach.
I have spent over 30 years with BT and have spent all of that time working on the engineering side.
There is a copy of our Campaign Plan for 2011 on the site and my Annual Report so that you can see that the NWRWC have been active in many areas.
We have focused on supporting branches, reps and members, especially regarding CWU campaigns & providing more help & development with women’s issues. One of the highlights of each year is the Women’s Evenings that we run across the region in October and November.
The Women’s Evenings are held in Manchester, Preston and Liverpool and are for you, the members. They are free and an opportunity for you to meet some of the CWU’s Officers and many other female members. We try to have a bit of fun as well as covering some more serious topics affecting women and more women are attending each year. We also have information regarding Education, Equality and the CWU Humanitarian Aid Charity.
If you have any feedback, please let me know as we are always open to new ideas & improvement. We also welcome anyone who would like to attend our meetings as an observer so let me know if you’d like to come and see what we do.
Regards
Karen Bosson
NW RWC Secretary
