LLL in the North West region

The Unite Lifelong Learning department is closely involved in all the Unite Regions. With the North West region being one with a strong history of industry and innovation, Union Learning Reps (ULRs) and members have the support of a Regional Learning Organiser (RLO) team dedicated to improving the skills and knowledge of all our members.

"ULRs are absolutely central to the Unite campaign for Lifelong Learning. Indeed their activities have been described as a 'quiet revolution' at work. With new legislation giving ULRs statutory backing, including paid time off for training and carrying out their duties, that quiet revolution is moving on apace. Unite is determined to build on this success by ensuring that ULRs have access to proper training and support. And we will continue our efforts to work with employers, government and other key partners to ensure that our members have access to quality education & training."
