Meeting Dates 2021

The Greater London Coordinating Committee (GLCoord) consists of the three London CMD BECTU sector branches of Prospect who in normal circumstances meet at 4pm in the upstairs room of the Artillery Arms in Bunhill row, near Old Street in London usually on the 2nd Tuesday of most months. All members are welcome. However, circumstances are not normal and because of the current restrictions we are holding meetings on line via Zoom. Details of how to join the zoom call given in the link to on the specific meeting date below. You will need to have an account and logged in to the site to access that information.  You can apply for an account here and your membership will be verified (unfortunately manually) and you will be added as soon as that is done. In registering please ensure that you provide sufficient information (especially your membership number) for me to identify you as a member. Notes of all meetings and much other useful information is available to members who log in to the site

When possible we will return to meeting at the Artillery arms but will most likely run the zoom at the same time for members who can’t easily get to the meeting location for whatever reason.

Our meetings in 2021 are on the second Tuesday of the month

** COVID-19 **

HMG's wish to avoid unnecessary social interaction during the progress of this virus has led your branches to cancel the planned physical branch meetings until further notice. We will instead be holding meetings over Zoom. The September 2020 meeting was held as both as a physical meeting in the Artillery Arms with a few attendees there and more members over Zoom. If/ when we move from Tier 2 we will aim to continue to do that, although for the annual meeting (January 12th 2021) we will be Zoom only.. Details on how to connect to the Zoom call are available to registered users after logging in.  Meeting dates are... here.

If needed, your branch officers (and Prospect Head Office) are still contactable of course. We will be updating this site with any relevant news. We wish all our members good health, and a swift and full recovery should they suffer the virus.
