CWU Anti-Racism Football Shirts

Dear colleagues,

We have today (17.6.20) launched our CWU anti-racism shirt. We worked with Show Racism the Red Card and a small business supplier SWAZ Teamwear to produce them. The design is attached (being worn by former Premier League manager Chris Houghton). The response from the membership and wider movement has been fantastic with many people asking where they can purchase them.

In line with this we have agreed with our supplier to put the shirts on sale in both child and adult sizes. Details of pricing and how to order can be found in the link below.

Any Branches wishing to place bulk orders can do so by contacting Swaz Teamwear directly via email Andy@swaz.co.uk

We are also pleased to announce that all funds the CWU make from every shirt sold will be split equally between supporting our anti-racism charity work and FareShare – the organisation distributing food to charities and across the country.

This is an opportunity to raise the profile of the union’s anti-racism work, support future CWU educational work in this area and contribute to a growing national campaign on poverty and child hunger.

We would encourage branches, individual members and people from across our movement to purchase a shirt and support this activity.

Yours sincerely,

Kate Hudson
