Well done to Barnsley Caring Voices for their performance at UNISON Yorkshire and Humber Regional Migrant Network meeting today. Inspiring. @unisonyh.bsky.social

Unison's investigation reveals shocking exploitation of migrant care workers, with some paying £20k in illegal fees. Choirs like Barnsley Caring Voices offer solace and solidarity amidst this ongoing crisis.

Great to see The Mirror shining a light on the exploitation faced by many migrant workers in the region, as well as celebrating the success of Barnsley Caring Voices choir 👏

Migrant worker June, who was scammed by her employer & told to find a new sponsor in 60 days or to go home to Nigeria, has found solidarity in Barnsley Caring Voices – a choir which brings migrant care workers together in song. #RealBritain www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...

We are featured in today's Real Britain article in the Daily Mirror. The piece highlights the plight of many migrant care workers and why the sponsorship system needs to change @unisonyh.bsky.social @unison.org.uk

Happy International Womens Day. Let us #AccelerateAction to secure a fair and just visa scheme for migrant care workers. #IWD2025

At last night's UNISON Kirklees AGM, the annual Unique Care award was presented to acknowledge the fantastic work of migrant workers. Here's Claret accepting it, with some wonderful words for UNISON 👏🥰

Some of our choir members attended the @unisonbarnsley.bsky.social AGM today. Here's Yemi with the newly-elected Branch Secretary Andrea. Two impressive women. #AccelerateAction #IWD2025

Yesterday some members of our choir sang at the @unisonyh.bsky.social migrant workers' event. Here we are singing "the Yorkshire anthem".

This charter will make a huge difference to us.

We're really looking forward to this event, and we're going to be singing! 🎵

This is one of our favourite songs as it poignantly reflects our experience of being far from home without the financial means to return www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nk72...

UNISON's Migrant Workers Charter is just what we need to help tackle exploitation of migrant care workers.
