  • Unison Equality Lgbt Members Our Public Service Champions
    1 Summer 2017 Issue 62 OUR PUBLIC SERVICE CHAMPIONS Public services are at the heart of a healthy, fair and thriving society. After nearly 10 years of cuts, we know how hard it can be to provide good quality, effective public services. In this issue of Out LGBT in UNISON, members talk about their jobs, the difference they make and the challenges they face. UNISON LGBT MEMBERS EQUALITY UNISON LGBT MEMBERS 2 EQUALITY OUR PUBLIC SERVICE CHAMPIONS Our Public Service Champions campaign celebrates the vital jobs UNISON members do and what a difference they make to people’s lives. We need to win over public opinion in favour of proper investment in public services. I’ve been a care worker for over ten years, looking after people in their own homes. It’s a very rewarding job. You come across such a range of people, helping them get back on their feet so they can manage on their own again. There’s also a lot of complex cases such as stroke patients and palliative care. When elderly LGBT people see my rainbow lanyard, I can see how it puts them at their ease. I’m now on full-time release as branch secretary. Being visible in my rainbow lanyard is important for that too. LGBT members can see I’m approachable if they’re worried about anything. We’re facing a lot of issues at the moment. We haven’t had a decent pay rise for about seven years. It’s very hard for our staff as the cost of living keeps rising.

  • Lesbian Geographies : Gender, Place and Power / by Kath Browne and Eduarda Ferreira
    LESBIAN GEOGRAPHIES For those who think that issues such as the lack of lesbian and queer socialising spaces are neither important nor deserve much theoretical and empirical analysis from the Social Sciences, this book is a must read. Departing from the intersections between queer and feminist geographies, and calling into question the Anglo-American hegemonies in these debates, it includes a complex analysis of resistant spaces and places, economic and social differences, power relations and communities, among many other important topics.
