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.
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

AGM
An Annual General Meeting is a rulebook requirement of each branch, but that doesn't mean it has to be dull and boring. We're spicing ours up with free food and drink, promotional giveaways, a prize draw, representatives from partnership providers, and a few presentations. Whilst we do have to spend just a little time on things like elections and rule changes, for the most part we will be doing our utmost to ensure that members have a fun, interesting and informative hour or two. Even if you can only spare a few minutes, your more than welcome to pop in.
The event will take place on Monday 19th March 2012 from 5pm in the Euan Keats Postgraduate Education Centre at the Princess Royal Hospital, Haywards Heath.
The meeting itself will commence at 6pm, but from 5 pm there will be a hot buffet available, with wine and soft drinks. All members are warmly invited to this. Information will be available on a range of membership benefits, and representatives from our partnership providers always afford a warm and friendly welcome, as well as lots of special offers and goodies galore.
This year we will also have some fine prizes up for grabs in our raffle, with all proceeds going to UNISON Welfare, UNISON's registered charity (see www.unison.org.uk/welfare ). Tickets will only cost £1 and the branch pledges to double anything members contribute, and make up the total to the nearest £100.
The branch is keen that all members should be able to attend the AGM. Non-members are welcome to attend for the buffet and meeting, but will not be eligible to vote.
To assist the branch in making arrangements for the AGM, we would appreciate if members could indicate if they will be attending by filling in the on-line registration form.
Nominations are sought for a wide variety of roles and positions within the branch. All members are encouraged to consider taking a more active part in the branch. Details of positions available and brief descriptions can be found here.
Members can submit motions to the AGM, and all such submissions will be considered by the Chair for inclusion on the agenda.
Submission of an Amendment to Rule
Members can submit amendments to rule to the AGM, and all such submissions will be considered by the Chair for inclusion on the agenda.
