Croyde Bay
Croyde Bay Holiday resort has been owned and operated by UNISON (or its predecessor NALGO) for over 80 years. It is situated on the stunning North Devon Coast between Ifracombe and Barnstaple. Although it has plenty to keep you entertained on site it is also a great base for getting out and about and seeing the major sites of Devon.
The resort offers a traditional British seaside holiday with a fantastic sandy beach. The leisure complex has a fully equipped gym and swimming pool, with a special hoist for disabled guests, plus a smaller pool for tiny tots. For relaxation there is a spa pool and sauna.
The resort is ideal for families and just adults as it has hotel accommodation, summer chalets and self catering cottages.
As a UNISON member you will receive a 15% discount on the standard prices. You will also be eligible for the many special offers, see below.
Aside from holidays, UNISON utilise the facilities for conferences, meetings and fund raising events – so whilst reducing costs, generating income, it also provides employment for the local community!

UIB Pre Paid Plus Card
The new Pre Paid Plus Card has been specifically introduced to help members who are experiencing difficulties during the current recession and credit crunch. This card provides all the convenience of having a credit card but without the risk of getting into debt and as there is no credit check all members are eligible for one. So whilst being a good product for all members it can be of particular benefit to low paid members and migrant workers and promotes financial inclusion. For further information, please e-mail Cate Ferguson
Now Transfer
A new service aimed at Polish Migrant Workers was featured in the Spring U magazine which offers them a very competitive rate when transferring money to Poland. This service was approved by UNISON’s migrant workers unit and it is hoped that the service can be expanded in the near future to include other countries such as the Philippines.
UIB Family Protection Insurance
Union Income Benefit (UIB) offer members Critical Illness cover, Life cover and Income Protection insurance. They are currently mailing members with an offer of £2,500 of free accidental death and disability insurance. If members want to take up this offer they can return a pre-paid card and UIB will then telephone them to arrange the cover.
UNISON Head Office has received a few enquiries about this so I would like to confirm that UNISON is not giving UIB any member’s telephone numbers. Members will only receive a telephone call if the member has returned the pre-paid card and included their telephone number on it themselves. UIB will offer members their other products but these are entirely optional and the free offer is not conditional on members signing up for any other cover.
Unsecured Personal Loans
UNISON is pleased to be able to confirm that from October 2009 UNISON will be offering members unsecured personal loans. We have received a lot of enquiries from members who are finding it hard to get loans due to the credit crunch. The new loans provider will be Secure Trust Bank and as well as offering competitive rates they also operate a responsible lending and debt management policy which was an essential requirement for any new supplier.
Loads of fantastic more offers
Last year we introduced a new section on the UNISONPlus pages of the website called ‘MORE OFFERS’ and this features companies that are offering services which we think are of benefit to members but who are not yet ready to be a fully fledged UNISONPlus provider. We will only include companies that meet the appropriate criteria to be a membership services supplier and can provide high standards of customer service. This has proved very successful and the Vauxhall Partners offer has been very popular with members. If you ever get a spare 5 minutes please take the opportunity to check out these offers on the website.
