    "I cannot describe how SIF have helped me during a tough time with my company. They managed my meetings with HR and managers professionally and knowledgeably. They were also available to attend the meeting with me on short notice and always responded to my messages for any recommendations I needed."

    "I recently had a TUPE case and was struggling to get the holiday pay I was owed. The union SIF stepped in and provided amazing support throughout the process. Thanks to their dedication and expertise, I received the holiday pay I was due. I am incredibly grateful for their help and highly recommend SIF to anyone in need of union assistance."

    "Amazing union that offers benefits you can actually use. After a traumatic time causing me to take some time off work for mental health reasons, I was able to access the 'in person counselling' they offer, something quite unique as usually companies only offer the 'over the phone' or 'virtual' types. This helped me so much that 4 months later, I am back on my feet and in a great place! Thank you SIF!!"

    "I've been a member since April 2025, with the way things were going I thought I needed someone to look after my employment issues and interests if any cropped up, long story short, an issue popped up with the renewing of my SIA licence which left me extremely concerned, I wrote to Daniel asking for help and advice, with 5 minutes I received a reply somewhat calming my nerves and that he had written to the SIA, within 48 hours my licence was renewed thanks to the SIF and Daniel Garnham , extremely pleased with my outcome. If you work in the industry trust me at some point your going to need help, I can now sleep easy"
