Ruth Sutherland had been chief executive at Samaritans since 2015, and her departure was announced last year. Given the fact that the Samaritans is in the very early stages of recovering from a toxic bullying culture which has damaged the lives of many of its staff, Unite does not believe that Mr Hughes is the right person to heal the problems the charity has experienced. Since Unite began the industrial action dispute there has been a surge of union membership at Shelter with over 100 new members joining the union.

Shelter workers secure pay victory and call off strikes Shelter workers secure pay victory and call off strikes

Unite, Britain and Ireland’s largest union, and Shelter’s management held extended negotiations last Friday (7 December) in a last ditch attempt to avert the strike action. Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said: “ This was a significant result, our members were prepared to stand together in unity and by doing so were able to secure a greatly improved pay increase.The Charity Commission has said it will investigate concerns about the Alzheimer’s Society’s approach to dealing with staff grievances and that it is now looking into a complaint that was initially made in 2018. Members of Unite, employed by housing charity Shelter, are celebrating victory after agreeing a vastly improved pay offer. The decision to accept the new deal means that the scheduled strike due to begin tomorrow (11 December) has been called off. Extended negotiations After working as a teacher in Sweden, France, Malaysia and the UK, she joined Cambridge University Press, initially as an editor working on coursebooks. Later, as Publishing Director, she led a team specialising in the areas of grammar and vocabulary and became involved in the development of the spoken English sections of the Cambridge English Corpus – a large database of language use. Her interest in how corpus research can improve English teaching materials, especially with regard to the spoken language, inspired her next transition to writer. She is co-author of the internationally-renowned print and online courses Touchstone and Viewpoint published by Cambridge University Press, which draw heavily on corpus research. In her roles as publisher and author she has travelled extensively and delivered papers at several international conferences. Jeremy joins at an exciting time for us and I look forward to working with him to build on our recent successes to ensure that we achieve our mission that fewer people die by suicide.” Gaining a professional qualification as a Life Coach proved useful for the part of her roles that she most enjoyed - interaction with the students. She is looking forward to continuing this role as part of the ADTIS programme.
