Veterans

Veterans and their issues are central to the MUA's work, from retirement security and health care. Veterans are also part of the backbone of the MUA's industrial and political activism.

Vale Julie Maplesten

We are sad to report that Julie Maplesten -- partner of retired President and long-term Branch Secretary of the Sydney Branch MUA & WWF Jimmy Donovan -- has passed away.

Julie was very well known to the MUA’s members, officers and staff for her constant involvement in the Union alongside Jim, and in more recent times, for her participation with our Veterans’ association.
