Letter to HTUC from Hackney Solidarity Network

Submitted by Janine on Mon, 11/01/2010 - 09:13.

Hackney TUC has received the following letter from the Hackney Solidarity Network ...

Hackney Solidarity Network was set up in early 2008 to help local campaigning groups network and so to increase their effectiveness, on the basis that the more we work together the stronger we are. Over the last two years HSN has developed to the extent that we are at a stage where the current organisers believe we should formalise how we work.
