UCU at the University of Brighton has three branches – Falmer & Eastbourne, Grand Parade and Moulsecoomb. The branch officers from each site sit on the Brighton UCU Co-ordinating Committee. This group steers local UCU policy and negotiates with senior management at the University.
Regular branch meetings are held for all UCU members to express their views and influence local union policy. Branch meetings also contain regular updates about local and national issues.
