As health unions prepare to protest at Stormont today we understand that the minister for health is about to make a major statement on reorganisation of the health service.

UNISON has been pressing for reorganisation since 2006.  We have supported most of the key proposals in the Donaldson Review.

We want to see an end to commissioning – the internal market which is wasting up to 15% of the health budget year on year.

Nurse Sue Moore is the latest winner of UNISON Northern Ireland Cindy Fogarty Learning Award.

Ms Moore was a nursing auxiliary when she started her learning journey with UNISON. This saw her gain her nursing degree and she is now a band 6 nurse, who manages a twilight team at the Belfast health and social care trust.

Ms Moore received her award from general secretary Dave Prentis and is pictured alongside the general secretary and her team from work.
