ADC 2025: a preview

At our annual delegate conference (ADC) and group conferences, PCS activists, chosen to attend by their members at their annual general meetings (AGMs), will have the opportunity to shape union policy.

 

ADC is our central policy-making body. Delegates representing members and branches across the UK will be asked to vote on motions deciding our policy which our national executive committee will implement throughout the year.

 

Their decisions will determine our way forward over the coming year as we continue to strive to build our union in both the public and commercial sectors. That is why our annual conference sits at the heart of union democracy.

 

Another major benefit of conference is the space it provides for reps to meet other reps, build contacts, discuss common issues and sharing solutions, whether at fringe meetings or social events.

 

It will also be a hybrid conference for those who are unable to attend in person in Brighton. A livestream will be available for members on the homepage of PCS Digital.

 

Members will be able to follow what's happening at conference through regular updates on our website and our various social media channels. Whether you attend in person or from your laptop, we hope you will be inspired to continue to build our union.

 

Ahead of her first conference, young rep Nicola wrote about her PCS journey so far, from becoming a rep to preparing to be a trainee delegate at this year’s conference.

 

"I hope that ADC will not only teach me more about PCS and how it works," she said. "I'm also keen to learn about effective ways of communicating and hear ideas about how I can help build the strength of PCS in my workplace."
