UNISON launching campaign to fight cuts at Derbyshire County council.
Transcript
00:00 So I'm Dave Ratchford, Regional Officer for Unison and I and some people are out here today in Chesterfield
00:07 getting signatures for our petition to stop the cuts at Derbyshire County Council.
00:12 One week today, Derbyshire County Council are going to make decisions about closing 10 out of 22 children's centres
00:19 and cutting 60% of early intervention staff, vital staff who are needed to protect children and their families.
00:27 We're hoping the public will support the campaign because this is about public services,
00:31 it's about the future of families and children in Derbyshire.
00:35 So if anybody wants to sign the petition, we will be in Buxton at midday on Thursday,
00:41 we'll be in Derby City Centre at midday on Friday.
00:44 You can find us online at the Derbyshire Unison Facebook page or at the Unison website.
00:51 Please sign our petition.
