TUSNE gathered in Edinburgh in March to discuss the latest developments across the nuclear sector and the continued need to support nuclear workers throughout the UK. The meeting came at a particularly significant time, just months ahead of the 2026 Scottish Parliament election, when voters will have the opportunity to signal their support for new nuclear development in Scotland, a prospect that continues to be blocked by the Scottish National Party.

In Morecambe, Lancashire, just a stone’s throw from Heysham nuclear power station, TUSNE held its final plenary of the year. It provided an important opportunity to reflect on the progress made across the civil nuclear sector this year and to look ahead to the challenges and opportunities that lie before it. 

In the House of Lords, union representatives from across the civil nuclear sector met to discuss supporting the workforce, with a clear message that sustaining momentum and adopting a fleet deployment approach are key to the industry’s long-term success.

On the 7th and 8th November 2024, TUSNE welcomed lay reps from Unite, Prospect and GMB to Llandudno, Wales, to discuss new nuclear development in North Wales.
