Our Taskforce recommended  that each year on the anniversary of her birth GMB would open nominations for the Eleanor Marx award.

We are pleased to advise you that thanks to the splendid support of Melanie Bartlett and John Stammers, a short video to promote the award has been produced and it was posted yesterday on the GMB national face book. You can access this by using the following address;  https://www.facebook.com/GMBunion/videos/242725376151264/

The online nomination form is available on the address below;     http://www.gmb.org.uk/eleanormarxaward

Rachel Holmes has given a commitment to present the award and a signed copy of her book again this year. In addition Baroness Angela Smith will host tea in the House of Lords for an hour with the winner.
