Citizens UK: Living Wage Action ‘Tea Party’ on Parliament Square
On Wednesday the 30th March they will gather in London, with the aim to engage as many MPs in parliament as possible in discussing pay and seeking their commitment to ensure England’s care workers get the Real Living Wage.
You will all gather at Parliament Square 1-2pm for a Tea Party to Celebrate Health and Social Care Workers.
Following the Tea Party everyone will gather at an Assembly nearby 2.30-3.30pm (venue TBC) This will give everyone a chance to hear from health and social care workers and others about why this is important. We will also be talking about what we will be doing with the campaign when we return home.
The event will finish at 3.30 with an evaluation and people leaving between 3.30-4pm depending on the length of journeys home.
A coach is being organised (pick up points near Brighton Train Station or outside of Cardinal Newman TBC ) to arrive in time for the Tea Party.
This is not a protest; rather, it’s a celebration of what’s already been achieved in terms of our national Living Wage work in Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland!
If you would like to take part, please email George Marshall gmm@varndean.ac.uk
