Two Unison rallies will take place in Oxford tomorrow ahead of a nationwide ballot on strike action.

The union is urging public sector workers to vote for industrial actions over cuts to their pensions which will see them work longer, pay more, and receive less when they retire.

A rally will take place at midday tomorrow at Oxford Town Hall, followed by another for health workers at Tingewick Hall at the John Radcliffe Hospital at 1.15pm.

Both will be addressed by UNISON assistant general secretary Karen Jennings and activists from local branches.
