It would be great if members could send a message of support to the branch secretaries/chairs of the UCU branches involved in next Tuesday's strike action. They are:

Doncaster - Rodney Challis - rodney.challis@don.ac.uk
Askham Bryan - Tina Hill - tah@askham-bryan.ac.uk
Rotherham - Tom Donaldson - tdonaldson@rotherham.ac.uk
Leeds College of Art - Richard Miles - richard.miles@leeds-art.ac.uk

You may also email the relevant college principals or their representatives. The email addresses are below.

A suggested form of words are below for you to cut and paste into an email.

Dear Principal

It is really outrageous that your college has failed to honour the Harmonised Pay agreement of 2004. Lecturers at (Askham Bryan, Doncaster, RCAT,Leeds College of Art) (AMEND TO SUIT) have provided your college and the communities they serve with unswerving dedication and hard work over the past four years.

Please will you sit down with UCU representatives at your college and reach agreement about a way forward. This issue has gone on for far too long. It will not go away by continuing to ignore the matter.

Hope you can find the time to fire something off.

Thanks

John
