We are calling on all ‘troublemakers at work’ to join us for our 2025 one-day conference.
Building on the success of our previous conferences, we're bringing together workers who want to build power at work, be strike-ready, inspire your co-workers to win, and transform weak unions into a strong voice for their members. Our event has a rank-and-file orientation: the labour movement is built and owned by the workers in it, not the paid officials or leaderships of unions.
Join this event if you want to win a pay rise, change something about your work, start a union at work, or kick-start an existing union at work.
Date: Saturday, 26 July 2025
Main Venue: Central Hall, Oldham Street, Manchester city centre, M1 1JQ.
Central Hall is the main venue. There is a second venue where a few of the meetings will be run: Sacha's Hotel, Tib Street, Back Piccadilly, Manchester, M4 1SH.
We will come together in participatory sessions led by activists and organisers. The event will have a rank-and-file orientation – focusing on building workers’ own collective power and how we can democratically control our unions.
We want to welcome a diverse mix of workers. To make the day affordable for everyone, our ticket price includes refreshments and lunch during the day.
We will make our event as accessible as we can. We will have wheelchair-accessible venues, subtitles in the two largest rooms, COVID air filters in some rooms, a quiet room, and parts of the conference which can be joined online. We will have a team of volunteers on the day who can help out, for example with finding rooms.
We have booked free, professional childcare at the conference. If you want to use this please book in good time. We recognise that some parents prefer to make their own arrangements. That could include a range of things from paying a childminder to providing some money so that a family member can take your kids out for the day. If you need financial support (including for childcare) please complete and return this form as soon as possible. If you have other accessibility needs, please let us know further down this form.
