    SAVE THE DATE: NUJ London Magazine & London Freelance Winter Party – Tuesday 10 December, 6.30pm 

    Dear Colleague,

    It’s party time! Come and wrap up the year with us.

    Join us for a Winter Social on Tuesday 10 December from 6.30-9 pm at St Anne’s Church Hall, 55 Dean Street, Soho WID 6AF [Map]

    We’re jointly hosting this event with the London Freelance branch so you can enjoy a buzzing party with other journos, photographers and union members in a vibrant West End venue. 

    In solidarity with striking journalists at the Guardian and Observer, we’ve invited their freelancers to join and update us on the planned strikes (Dec 4&5 and Dec 12&13). There’ll be vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options, as well as a variety of soft and alcoholic drinks – and even some mulled wine to warm your cockles!  

    St Anne’s is fully accessible for wheelchair users. Let us know if you have any special requirements. 

    Members – please RSVP by 9 December at editor@londonfreelance.org , indicating which branch you belong to, so we can keep track of numbers for catering. 

    We look forward to seeing you! 

    Cheers, 
    London Magazine & London Freelance branches Team 🥂 

    The NUJ is committed to organising events at which everyone can participate in an inclusive, respectful and safe space. Please support us in creating an environment where everyone feels able to be involved and have an enjoyable time.

  • NUJ London Magazine Branch Meeting – October 2024

    Date and time: Monday 21 October 2024, 6.30pm

    Location: Hybrid: NUJ, Headland House (72 Acton St, London WC1X 9NB) and online (Zoom link emailed).

    This month’s meeting will be focused on drafting motions for next year’s Delegate Meeting, also known as DM, the NUJ’s biennial national congress.

    The NUJ is a democratic union and all members can influence policy – come along to share ideas for motions. Don’t worry if you haven’t done this before, branch committee members will be there to explain how the process works and advise on the wording. The final draft motions will be proposed at November’s meeting ahead of the motions’ submission deadline on 27 November.

    If you are interested in joining DM as a branch delegate or putting your nomination forward to any of the NUJ councils and committees, come along as well.

    As always, RSVP for the branch meeting is not necessary but it’s helpful if you are attending in person to get enough refreshments for everybody.

    Please note that the meeting room is on the first floor and the lift is currently out of order.

    We look forward to seeing you!
