Listen now to episode 77 of the POA Podcast - Young Members in the POA youtu.be/b9YUaGcChK0 Engaging younger members in the union and keeping them active is an essential part of the POA’s strategy, and the Young Members Consultative Committee is a key body for delivering that objective. In this episode, Jordan, Lewis and Tyler, three members of the Committee join Deputy General Secretary Mick Pimblett to share their hopes and experiences and explain why young members are very much the present as well as the future of the POA.

Very proud that I have been voted to take over the role as TUC President by the General Council from the end of Congress until Congress 2026 where I will chair Congress. This is the first time in the history of the POA where someone has become the TUC President. I will do it to the best of my ability and look forward to the challenges over the next 12 months where the trade union movement can and will make the difference to our members not only in the POA but the wider union movement. Steve Gillan Gen Sec.

@NotThatBigIan It's getting closer and closer to the reporting of the death of a Prison Officer. I wonder how long it's going to take for someone to listen to @POAUnion Right across the country, the health and safety of all staff is placed at risk every day of entering the workplace.

@POAUnion Didn’t realise how long some of the staff had been there, they’re a credit to the union and I’m sure, just as our sec at Hull is, are unsung heroes!

🚨Tens of thousands of workers have been stripped of their democratic right to strike, their trade union slapped with six-figure fines for standing up for the rights of its members & their leaders threatened with imprisonment - damn right I’m standing with the @POAUnion!

@POAUnion Absolute tragic news Steve! I was gutted to hear about this first thing this morning. It was an absolute pleasure to know him, such a sad loss. Condolences to all his family.

It is with deep regret that today I had to announce that POA Deputy General Secretary Joe Simpson had passed away on 27th September after a brave fight against cancer. Joe was an immense man, trade unionist and a friend. He will be sadly missed. RIP Joe. Steve Gillan Gen Sec

@PoaSecHull @POAUnion @hmpps Have they apologised to this woman yet? This happened to me when I had cancer + I checked out mentally after that.

A Hull @POAUnion member approached me today after recently returning to work after battling breast cancer. Thankfully she now has the all clear, but line manager has still issued a sick warning for cancer? Where’s the duty of care @hmpps?

If this incident does not improve the inadequate vetting , the insufficient recruitment process that doesn’t even include a face to face interview and overhaul initial training so its robust and weeds out those who are not suitable for the job then nothing will. We need change.

@ourbrenno Whether he was an Immigrant or British citizen, that doesn’t take away the fact that all patrol Police should be appropriately armed to defend themselves in this type of situation.

@PoaSecHull @POAUnion @hmpps As we both know it is up to an individual whether a sick warning is issued or not. There appears to be to be no room for compassion throughout the service

@PoaSecHull @POAUnion @hmpps It's still in the new policy, why didn't the line manager use their discretion? Absolutely appalling decision. I hope your member is appealing this decision.
