I WOULD like to use your pages to thank Paul Holleran, the NUJ’s Scottish Organiser, for all his efforts during my recent redundancy negotiations with the Scotsman. Paul’s knowledge, experience and acumen were reassuring at a difficult time. In situations where it would be easy to feel lonely or fearful, knowing the union is behind you has an enormously strengthening effect.

I WOULD like to thank the NUJ freelance office for persuading one of the world’s biggest automotive companies to cough up a payment for copy that was several months overdue. Within a few days of me contacting Pamela Morton, the money was in the bank.
