2009 is the 175th anniversary of the Grand Demonstration at Tolpuddle and to remember this a series of events is being planned throughout the Tolpuddle Festival being held between Friday 17th July – Sunday 19th July 2009. Hampshire & the Isle of Wight branch of Napo will be attending the festival and participating in the Grand Procession on Sunday 19th July 2009.

It was agreed at the Branch AGM that members can be funded to attend in one of 2 ways:

(1) Camping overnight and pitch fees (up to a 4 berth tent) will be paid by the Branch
OR
(2) Travel down on the Sunday and mileage will be paid for your journey.

If Members wish to register for this event please email Tina Williams, Branch Secretary by the close of business Friday 3rd July 2009 with your preference for Option 1 or 2 and the appropriate details.

NAPO AGM

The National AGM is being held in Torquay this year between 1st and 4th October 2009. Hampshire and the Isle of Wight branch intend to attend with a delegation of 16 members. Accommodation and some meal costs will be paid by the Branch. Whether time to attend the AGM is granted as facility time by HPA is the subject of current negotiation, however at present, time off is permissible subject to operational requirements but this will be unpaid unless taken as A/L or toil. This may change before the AGM.

The AGM is an opportunity to explore current practice issues, contribute towards debate on ongoing concerns and network with your fellow Napo colleagues from all over England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

If you wish to attend please email Tina Williams, Branch Secretary by the close of business Friday 3rd July 2009. Places are offered on a first come, first served basis. Thereafter, a waiting list will be in operation.
