Prospect members at London Museum have secured a 3.5% pay rise following industrial action and campaigning.
The deal ends the ongoing dispute sets an important benchmark for pay in the heritage sector.
Prospect reps from our public services sector met this week to coordinate pay campaign strategy.

The Government must ensure that public sector workers, and the specialists that Prospect represent, receive a fair pay rise that matches inflation in the upcoming civil service pay round.

We wrote to Reform's Richard Tice in November outlining how their plans to close public sector Defined Benefit Schemes to new entrants would cost the public finances billions.
Today they have re-announced the same policy - it's fantasy economics.

Good to see coverage in the @financialtimes.com of our campaign to protect jobs at the National Nuclear Laboratory.
The proposed cuts of up to 20% of staff would be a huge loss of nuclear skills and capability at exactly the time we are trying to scale up.

Ahead of the Senedd election in May, Mike Clancy, our General Secretary, blasts Reform's manifesto.
"This is an all-out assault on our members in the public sector... The other theme is a total unwillingness to defer to evidence and expertise."

Happy International Women’s Day! 💚
This week Prospect delegates attended TUC Women’s Conference.
They spoke on tackling inequality for freelancers and the self-employed, closing the gender pension gap and improving women’s occupational health and safety at work.
A bold text-based graphic with a black background. Quoted are "March" "For Love" "For Hope" "For Unity" "Together" "28 March, London".
Save the date, Prospect is supporting the Together march in central London on Saturday 28 March.
Join us to reject racism and discrimination, build solidarity, and unite against the far right.
We’ll share details soon on how to join the trade union section under the Prospect banner.
It is deeply worrying to see the Far Right mobilising in Manchester today. Prospect stands against this hatred and division, and in solidarity with the people of Manchester.
Fantastic turnout and support for Prospect's industrial action on pay that started today across London Museum locations. Loved seeing the placards,badges, costumes and masks and incredible energy.
Proud to have kicked off the speeches, plus chants and old dockers songs!
Solidarity with Prospect members at London Museum who are out on strike today in a dispute over pay ✊
News of these cuts at the National Gallery is worrying for everyone who works there. That a major gallery is in such a dire financial position shows just how difficult things are in the heritage sector.

Image that reads: Prospect is a politically independent union, but our members are deeply affected by political instability. Not only does this directly affect our members working in the civil service, but political chaos leads to economic instability that affects all working people. Having just got the Employment Rights Act on the statute book, we need a government focused on delivery that can ensure the roadmap is met and these rights are delivered in full. This cannot be a wasted year of drift and division in government. We need calm heads to prevail in the coming days.
We are politically independent, but like all working people, our members are deeply affected by political instability.
