The Association of Higher Civil and Public Servants (AHCPS) is a registered trade union affiliated to the Irish Congress of Trade Unions.
It's always good to visit our friends in @ahcps.bsky.social at their annual conference. All the more so to hear @robertmurtagh1.bsky.social in his role as @unions21.org Director for Ireland talk about its work on trade union renewal, helping unions to build capacity & capability.
