The purpose of this email is to advise you of ‘National Postal Workers Day’ on the 14th December and ask for your support to help us promote this day.
I have attached a poster and we are asking you to take pictures with the poster of yourself and your work colleagues. Please share them on Monday 14th December through either twitter using #PeoplesPost and @NWCWU or Facebook. You can also email them to Northwestregion@cwu.org
A number of high profile figures and MPs have already pledged their support for National Postal Workers’ Day and we will be sharing their videos, messages and tweets on the day.
The union are also launching an online petition to coincide with the day designed ultimately to achieve 100,000 signatures which will trigger a fresh debate in Parliament about the future of UK postal service, the threat of competition and in particular the Regulators role. The link for our People’s Post Petition is www.supportthepeoplespost.co.uk Any help you can give to promote this would be great.
The union have taken adverts out in the Daily Mirror, New Statesman and Big Issue. These will feature on the 14th.
Any assistance you can give to help us promote Postal Workers Day and the People’s Post campaign would be very much appreciated.
If you need any more information, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Many thanks
Carl Webb
