RepsDirect Newsletters



Unite (like Amicus and MSF before them) produced a series of newsletters to keep reps up to date with what is happening. Although all newsletters are listed, this site does not reproduce the content of all of these - only those deemed relevant or of interest to GHP reps or members.

Unfortunately, they ceased being distributed in March 2009. Neither have those editions of RepsDirect not held on this site been made available on the Unite website.
