When the FESR emerged in the late 1980s they forged ahead on the understanding that they would gather
together many small voices and combined would keep various concerns on the Government agenda until
justice was achieved. The odds seemed insurmountable, the campaign fought long and hard, but through
the determination and dedication of FESR Members and like minded bodies, success was achieved.

The following archive provides a brief record of that historical struggle.
