Meetings of your Local Association provide the opportunity to hear the latest national and local information, share your views, influence policy development, network and seek advice and support.

The NASUWT is a democratic, member-led organisation which operates to defend and advance members’ interests. This is done with the participation of the members who can get involved as workplace representatives, by joining the local Executive Committee (EC), by attending General Meetings and events and as Conference delegates or voting for Conference motions. Any Stockport member who would like to find out more about being involved with the local executive or attending the regional or annual conferences should contact the Secretary.
