Members at Coventry Newspapers - publishers of the Coventry Citizen, Bedworth Echo and the Evening Telegraph - have been forced to strike to win better pay.
Most seniors on the paper do not break the £19,000 wage barrier and owners Trinity Mirror made more than £200m proift last year.
We've been asked to help by one of three methods:
* Give cash - we got the plea yesterday, after the July meeting, and don't meet again for another 7/8 weeks so timing is bad. But if you can help send a cheque, payable to NUJ Coventry, to 41 Spencer Avenue CoventryCV5 6NQ.
*Send emails of support for the NUJ to sly-bailey@trinitymirror.com. She's the boss. Or click on the headline to access the NUJ's suggestedmodel letter to be sent to her.
*Invite strikers to a branch or chapel meeting. We may well do this for September!
