UNISON welfare is a unique service that is provided to UNISON members.  We are totally confidential and no one else within the UNISON Branch need know your personal circumstances.  We can try to assist you with non work related issues within the home / family environment. This service is available for members and also their family that live with them.

UNISON Welfare can assist with various issues such as:

Off long term sick? On ½ pay? or on no pay? - and general household bills are becoming a struggle.
Have an unforeseen bill / can't pay bills? - living on the breadline and a major item within the house has just broken.
Recovering from surgery / Illness - why not recuperate away from all the daily strains?
looking for advice / assistance in dealing with your debts.
