Vintage Reds is an activist group of retired trade union members based in Brisbane.
We meet at 10AM on the 1st Thursday of each month at the QCU Building, 2nd Floor 16 Peel St. South Brisbane QLD 4101.
Members also regularly join union pickets and campaigns when requested.
We seek to:
- promote and support the interests of trade unionism and retired unionists,
- provide forums for political discussion, education and camaraderie, and
- participate in industrial campaigns, social justice forums, debates, demonstrations and rallies.
Under the ACTU across Australia retired unionist networks are being formed and organising meaningful activities and actions – see https://www.australianunions.org.au/about-unions/retired-unionists-network/. In Brisbane we have an elected Committee who organise activities for our regular monthly meeting, as well as publicising Union actions.
