POA CIRC 022: SUPPORT FOR “TOGETHER MARCH” SATURDAY 28TH MARCH 2026

The POA have previously circulated information that we support the above demonstration, and I am now writing to you again to encourage our members to be aware of and, where appropriate, support the upcoming “Together March” taking place in London on Saturday, 28^th March 2026.

This National Rally brings together a broad coalition of trade unions, community organisations, campaign groups and public figures to stand in unity against the rise of far-right rhetoric, division and extremism within our society. This has the full backing of the TUC and GFTU, which we are affiliated to. The march promotes the core values of solidarity, inclusion and respect-principles which align with the ethos of the POA trade union and our profession and the diverse communities we serve.

A significant number of high-profile attendees are expected, including senior trade union leaders, politicians, campaigners, solicitors, and cultural figures, reflecting the widespread concern across society about the issues being highlighted. The scale and visibility of this event underline the importance of collective action in defending democratic values and social cohesion.

As POA members we work on the front line of a system that is directly impacted by social division and inequality. The POA recognises the importance of standing against hate and supporting initiatives that promote unity and mutual respect. 

Members who wish to attend should do so in a personal capacity and ensure that their participation does not conflict with their professional responsibilities or conduct expectations.

Further details regarding assembly points, timings, logistics can be obtained on the TUC website or other official websites of the “Together March”.

 

Yours sincerely

STEVE GILLAN
General Secretary
