Some of our Community Union reps recently hosted a successful health, safety and wellbeing event for staff at HMP Peterborough – a male and female prison with a bespoke mother and baby unit.
Donna Turner, Frank Wiebe and Harcharan Bal promoted the advantages of Community membership by explaining our benefits to a room of around 80 staff members and managers.
During the event, Donna, who is a health and safety rep, distributed leaflets and discussed workplace accommodations for women experiencing the menopause, something we continually raise awareness for.
We are very grateful to Donna, Frank and Harcharan for promoting the benefits of Community membership and are glad to hear that they received positive feedback following the event.

“It was a privilege to represent Community Union at the staff health and safety wellbeing event we held earlier this month at HMP Peterborough.
“It was a great opportunity to speak to staff about the benefits of joining Community, and we had some really positive feedback following the event.”
