Happily signed, as someone who only moved up one little point on Oxfam's pay scale during 16 years of service. And as for performance related pay? I'm a former teacher. Don't get me started.
Oxfam management are trying to wriggle out of an agreement with Unite the Union to "develop a new system of pay progression, by August 2024". Please sign the petition and tell Oxfam to reward its long-serving staff fairly, as agreed

The Government of Grenada, Carriacou & Petite Martinique has activated a relief fund for those affected by Hurricane Beryl. Carriacou, Petite Martinique & St Patrick's Parish are devastated. Please share & give generously. This is #lossanddamage

Often young people I run climate workshops for at @oxfamgb totally get net zero but overlook adaptation & loss + damage. That's what they learn at school. But the cry from the Caribbean after #HurricaneBeryl is that all 3 are urgent for #ClimateJustice

It was a pleasure to welcome you to Oxfam House @SRA_Art_ & a shout out to everyone at @SRA_StAlbans & @ScholarsEdTrust who are doing great work on climate education. As @Halima_Begum said, schools are such an important place for young people's voices to be heard & amplified
Thank you @OxfamEducation for inviting us in to see the Climate Justice banner display. Students loved meeting the inspirational @Halima_Begum. Fantastic to see our @GretaThunberg banner amongst the other works of art

A massive thank you to @Voiceofthepoets for your inspiring workshop yesterday. When the young people read their poems standing underneath their banners it brought together the power of all creativity to influence change.
Our students on the @OxfamEducation visit took part in a poetry workshop with the wonderful @Voiceofthepoets hearing her Climate Justice piece was moving
