Education Information

The Young Members’ Development Weekend is back this November from Friday 11th to Sunday 13 th 2022 at GFTU’s own Quorn Grange Hotel. Established over many years, this is really one of the best Labour Movement events. Engaging, challenging, fun, an inspiring weekend to make new friends, learn about the Movement and develop skills to organise and build your union. The style of the event is learning from each other and sharing experiences. Participants will also hear from leading trade unionists about their work in Britain and overseas. Every year it's been a game changer for those involved and many new leaders have come forward following this motivational experience.

“ The Young Members’ Development Weekend does exactly what it says on the tin and is the only event like it in our movement. ”

“ I still remember how great it was to be spending a weekend with other young trade unionists learning about the movement, politics, economics, international issues and employment rights amongst many other areas, it was my first experience of a trade union event that didn’t just involve motions.”
