New South Wales Nurses and Midwifes Association

First prize for placards depicting conditions won by nurses, supported by their Union, dating from 1936

P1340769 

This May Day march was a uplifting! Strong, vibrant, colourful and the biggest for 10 years!
All Unions were involved as far as I could see, many community groups, inventive floats,  bagpipes and brass bands.  

First and second prizes were awarded to the best Unions and best political or community organisations in the May Day March. The basis of the decision was innovation, positive promotion of the organization or campaigns, signage, branding, colour, sound, noise and getting the message across of a proud past and a fighting future.
