Union Show Funding Crisis

Having only just discovered The Union Show the irony is that it may be killed off by lack of funding. Since I exist in Queensland such insider knowledge wasn't an option for me

A message from The Union Show's Debra Weddall .

Let's keep the show on the road. You can help us to get continued funding (if you want to) by lobbying your union - this is where we engage in the grassroots campaign because we're mad if we don't - and we can help you lobby with a presentation pack but also you can just as easily get lots of people in your workplace and your union to join and/or view The Union Show Group.

Anyone who would like a Union Show union presentation to help them lobby their union for the continuation of funding please email workers@skatv.org.au and Vas will send you a copy via return email. If you can think of any other help we can give you please message us and we will certainly help if we can.

I suppose everyone knows by now that without further immediate funding last Tuesday was the last show. Now we know we all love Kassey and the show is looking better and delivering more than it ever has - we think we have hit our straps - and in the conversation of life you'd have to say "How ironic".

At this point - we may not be allowed to speak for ourselves but that only means that speak we must.

Cheers

Debra
