150 Years of the TUC – Commemorative Film Premiere – Saturday 15th December
All Welcome: Come and see a film celebrating the history of our labour movement and the first meeting of the TUC in the room where it took place.
The Trades Union Congress (TUC) has been campaigning for a better deal for workers for 150 years. It all began in 1868 in Manchester when members of Manchester and Salford Trades Councils pulled together the first meeting at the Mechanics Institute.
At 12.30pm on 15 December at the Mechanics Institute, Manchester M1 6DD we are showcasing a film commemorating and celebrating this, produced by Manchester University film and media students, sponsored by Manchester UNISON. This event will last approximately 2 hours and all are welcome to attend.
