We plan, from time to time, to invite supporters to make online donations for specific causes such as the union-supported overseas aid agency, APHEDA or to support individual workers in crisis or for other causes. Soon it will be possible for purchases to be made online.  Our online payment system and details for donations is currently under construction. However we have a written donation refund and privacy policy which can be viewed as pdf here. (and below)
