23rd November, 1pm Larkin Statue, O’Connell St, Dublin 1

Dear members,

On Saturday 23rd of November we’ll be taking part in the Rally for Unity and Hope in Dublin. Will you join us?

Our union has always fought for equality in public services and across society. Every day our members work for the good of all people in our country, whether they’re on the front line of community health services, working in schools, offices, libraries, cleaning our cities, and everywhere else our union is active.

The fabric of our country has been enriched by diversity and unity gives us power. When we stand together as union members, we win together. 

Fórsa members have been increasingly affected by groups seeking to sow division and hate in our workplaces and communities. We know that there are people who want to blame the challenges in our society on people who are different, when instead better public services and improved pay and conditions at work would make our country a fairer place for everyone.

The Irish Congress of Trade Unions has called this demonstration on Saturday 23rd November to send a clear message that unity will always triumph over division. 

We’ll meet at the Fórsa offices at Nerney’s Court, Dublin 1, with tea and coffee from 12.15pm, and then we’ll leave as a group at 12.45pm sharp so we can join the demo all together.

You don’t have to register to join us, but it would be helpful to have an idea of numbers so if you’re planning to come you can let us know here.

Social media plays a huge role in the spreading of hate and division, even though it’s only a small group of people doing so. But we can counter that.

Let’s make sure we show that Fórsa members stand united for public services: provided by all, to the benefit of all. I hope to see you next week.

In solidarity
