Disabled Members Network

BECTU's Disabled Members Network provides information and support to, and receives feedback from, disabled members.

It is overseen by a Disabled Members Network Committee comprising disabled representatives from each of the union's six Divisions.

Chaired by Jane Perry, the committee advises the union on:

• compliance with disability law and codes of practice
• provides access to specialised knowledge in the disability field
• makes a report to the union's conference
• publishes an occasional newsletter and news briefings
• provides delegates to the TUC and STUC disability conferences

BECTU nationally is affiliated to TUDA, the Trade Union Disability Alliance.
