LAST WEEK I reported on the work of the Glasgow Readers and Supporters’ Group. In an update to the news that they had all the stall gear stolen, I am glad to report that they still ordered papers for the weekend. They are joined by groups in Exeter, Edinburgh and Derby who all ordered papers. Papers have also gone to the South West TUC regional AGM which took place in Croyde Bay and to the CWU conference in Bournemouth.
Two key dates are on the horizon: International Workers Memorial Day and International Workers Day (May Day). If you are attending events on these days do get your orders in early for papers circulation@peoples-press.com.
We are currently rolling out our big campaign promoting the premium digital subscription to trade union branches. We know from feedback we get at the various conferences we attend that the paper is well thought of and received but that not everyone wishes to commit to becoming a daily reader.
