Need Help?

Welcome to the Central Sussex Hospitals branch's website. Direct any questions or comments about this site to Mark Sargent on mark.sargent@unison-csh.org.uk

If you need help and are a member of UNISON, then you should first of all talk to your local representative. Otherwise contact the branch office. As the office is not manned on a regular basis, e-mail contact is preferred. You can also call our national helpline, UNISONdirect, on 0845 355 0845.

Lines are open from 6am to midnight on Monday to Friday and from 9 am till 4pm on Saturday. There is also a textphone number for members with hearing difficulties - 0800 0 967 968.

UNISON Welfare

Welfare

We are aware of the pressures UNISON members face on a daily basis and can provide support at times of unforeseen financial hardship or personal difficulty such as redundancy, bereavement, illness or relationship breakdown.

We support members in a variety of ways mainly through confidential advice and financial assistance in the form of grants. For example we can help with sorting out finances, advise on benefits or put members in touch with another organisation that can help.

Welfare advice is provided by the Central Sussex Hospitals Branch's own Welfare Officer, Marilyn Saward. All enquires are handled in complete confidence and with sensitivity.

Find out more about how Marilyn can help members by visiting the Welfare section of this site, or e-mail her on welfare@unison-csh.org.uk

Regions

In this section

UNISON branches are grouped into 12 regions which cover the UK.

Each region has its own head office and a regional council made up of delegates from all branches in the region.

The regional council develops policies and puts them into action regionally. It's the main link between neighbouring branches and between branches and UNISON's national executive council.

CONTACT INFO:

Regional offices

Your regional office can help put you in touch with your local branch and workplace reps. It can also tell you about education and training courses and how to get involved in local and national campaigns.

You'll find some regions have their own websites.
