Christmas Wreaths In December 2020 our Lifelong Learning Officer from Derbyshire County organised a Christmas Wreath Making course for all Derbyshire members. This was the 2nd time we had run this course but the 1st time on line. I have to say I was very apprehensive as to whether it would work but there was no need, it all went fantastically. With the superb support from the Regions Union Learning Fund local Organiser Ella the information got out to people seamlessly. 100 members from across Derbyshire and from the various sectors of UNISON took part and the feedback was excellent with 97 people returning their feedback form (that in itself was amazing), all comments were positive and around how the course had helped their mental health and wellbeing plus giving them something to look forward to during the year of the Pandemic. I have to thank the Union Learning Fund in supporting these course by assisting in the funding of them, without that we could not have delivered the course to so many, believe it or not we had over 360 applications for the course, that again bowled me over. I am so proud to be part of a union that puts its members at the heart of it. Thank you UNISON. Jayne Barry Lifelong Learning Officer and ULR
