Why choose Voice?

   

Our success as a union is based on a commitment to our members and we frequently go beyond what’s expected to find new ways to support you. We negotiate with government departments, local authorities and private employers to seek recognition for education and childcare professionals. This is assisted by our strong position in government working groups and consultation forums.

 

Our goal is to ensure your place of work is somewhere you feel valued, secure and rewarded. Voice deals with the agitating, the arguing, the negotiating and the planning, giving you the freedom to get on with what matters most – your job.

 

Here are four good reasons to add your voice to that of our members:


The strength of negotiation

 

At Voice, we believe in the power of negotiation to protect the interests of our members – who never resort to industrial action.


Truly independent union

 

Our independence from the TUC and non-affiliation to any political party means our thoughts and actions are dedicated to our members

 

Supporting children
Protecting ourselves

 

We’re responsible for the children we educate and care for, and it’s essential that we support them alongside protecting ourselves.


Every member is unique

 

All of our members are professionals fulfilling an important role in education, early years and childcare, so it’s important that we provide a dedicated and personal service, and strive for quality in everything we do.
