I'm raising £20,000
The University of Nottingham is planning to make around 600 of its staff redundant. Around one in four academics will lose their jobs. Technicians and professional services staff are also at risk.
UCU, the trade union that represents these workers, is fighting back. Over the summer we took part in a marking and assessment boycott. Management responded with 100% pay deductions. The fight continues into Autumn with two and half months of continuous strike action. And no pay.
To help our members sustain this fight, we are looking to boost our solidarity fund. This will be used to lessen the hardship felt by staff who could go for long periods without pay as they fight the university's plans.
Protect our staff. Protect the University. Support the strike. Donate to our hardship fund.
