BECTU welcomes input from its disabled members.
BECTU's Disabled Members Network provides information and support to the union's disabled members. We encourage the active participation of disabled members in the union's affairs.
Disabled members network committee
The Network is over overseen by a committee made up of disabled representatives from each of the union's five divisions (Arts and Entertainment, BBC, Independent Broadcasting, London Production, Regional Production).
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
- sends delegates to the TUC and STUC disability conferences
BECTU is affiliated to TUDA, the Trade Union Disability Alliance.
The BECTU Disabled Members Network can be contacted via the union's administrative officer, Tracey Hunt.
