Season’s Greetings from your Huddersfield UCU Committee
Message from the Chair
On behalf of the Huddersfield UCU Branch Committee, I would like to wish all of our members a Merry Christas and a Happy New Year.
2023 has been a challenging year for us, with further restructuring and redundancies affecting Human and Health Sciences, Arts and Humanities, Applied Sciences, Education and Professional Development, and the Business School. Here’s hoping the university management finally realise that it is people, not shiny new buildings, that make a university a great place for students to study and for staff to work.
As a branch we are stronger together, and we will be focussing in the new year on building our membership and raising our profile. For that, we need all our members’ help. Only as a strong collective can we hope to influence the running of the institution. Let’s all commit to working together to build our branch strength in 2024.
Enjoy the holidays, and we look forward to seeing you back and re-energised in January!
