Looks like blatant advertising to me - are you a UNISON Official?

Don't be silly, Rupe, the poster is only sharing some worthwhile advice.
Its also an equitable life if you are prudential and if you are legally and generally in direct line for more than Churchills first Cooperative Endeavour with his Admiral at the AA meeting where they saw a pink Elephant. But then I can't bE Sure
Follow the trolls
If it looks like an advert, if it reads like an advert, if it sells like an advert - then it's AN ADVERT!
Is it better or worse than BASW advertising similar services on the forum, though? £10 a year is quite cheap.
No better, no worse - just advertising which I understand is not allowed on CareSpace.

Deep breaths, Rupie, deep breaths.....
students should be a member of a union as standard as they have even less power than an actual employee - tho its a sad fact that they will in all probablity just be £10 a year worse off

Hey care space members just found out about a deal with Unison, they are giving Union services to students for £10 and the form you fill in does not even request the student to be a social work student, what do you think of this?
More info
Seems to be a very odd concept that posting information into the Carespace section devoted to Unison is an 'Advert', very strange logic.
I was always taught that attention to detail was important 'Jo follow the trolls etc'
Please note the £10 subscription applies if you are undertaking fullor part-time training or study designed to lead to employment in socialwork.
