Equality Officer

Bode Davies

Bode works within the Medical Records Department and is experienced as a Steward, a former Branch Chair & Welfare Officer. He knows that he has a big job ensuring that the Trust delivers the NHS promise on equality. "There are still a disproportionate number of part time women in the lower grades and we need to make sure that the Trust does not discriminate against them and gives them the opportunity to develop."

Stephen Moran

Morrissey look-alike and fan Stephen, like Bode, works in Medical Records at NMGH. He believes in total financial accountability and transparency. He was a keen advocate of an expenses-only system of remuneration for Stewards.

Health & Safety Officer

Pauline Jones - click to enlarge

Pauline Jones

Pauline works in the Planning Department of Trust HQ in Westhulme, Oldham and gamely flies the Health & Safety flag for the new branch. Pauline would like to see every branch activist be doubly qualified as a Health & Safety Rep as she believes it gives them far more muscle in the workplace. At the moment, Pauline is committed to ensure that the Trust has good Health & Safety policies to protect staff.

Contact Pauline on 0161-627-8290
or E-mail at safety@unison-pah.org.uk

Education Co-ordinator

Mike Holt - click to enlarge

Mike Holt

Mike Holt is an MLSO working in Biochemistry in the Pathology Department at North Manchester. He has a big job in the new Branch arranging training for new and existing activists as well as recruiting Life Long Learning Reps. "An untrained Rep is no asset to anyone and can give members the wrong advice. This can sometimes put them in a dangerous position," Says Mike. If he strikes up a conversation with you, keep him off the subject of life-long learning unless you've plenty of time as he's very passionate about the subject.

Ring Mike on 0161-720-2149
or E-mail at education@unison-pah.org.uk

Welfare Officer

Peter Dalzell

Horny-handed 'son of the soil' or just plain member of the Gardening Department, Peter tries to ensure that Members claims for welfare payments are dealt with speedily and sympathetically. Known behind his back as 'Sam Gamgee'.

Membership Secretary

Julie Taylor - click to enlarge

Julie Taylor

Julie Taylor is a Health Care Support Worker in the Out-Patients Dept at NMGH and has one of the toughest jobs going, trying to merge four out-of-date Branch records into one. She is waiting for the long-promised electronic, centralised membership record system that UNISON keeps promising to deliver. Members can update their details on this website by printing out a form & sending it in to the Branch Office.

Ring Julie on 0161-720-2149

Social Secretary

Jean Verity-Doyle - click to enlarge

Jean Verity-Doyle

Jean Verity-Doyle, despite her double-barrelled name is a Doctor's Aide and very proud of her Salford roots. Currently she is studying 'Law At Work' in order to give the management a run for their money but I don't think Michael Mansfied has anything to worry about. She wants to try to organise social events throughout the year in order to encourage member participation.
