‘It’s helped a lot. I think they did listen to me a bit more’
Stamford bargaining representative Anthony Lawlor.

Momentum is building amongst Stamford workers – after the success of the photo petition, twice as many workers signed the shirts to tell management that it was time to move forward.

‘I stood there and I told them quite confidently that I wanted fair pay for fair work... It felt fantastic - I felt liberated!’
Stamford representative Paige Simmons.

Activists representing Stamford workers left the meeting excited to tell their co-workers and build even more support. Now more than ever, workers feel like they can win.
