Albert Spanswick
Ernest Albert George Spanswick (2 October 1919 – 27 April 1983) was a British trade unionist.
Born in Parkstone, Spanswick served with the Royal Army Medical Corps during World War II. After the war, he qualified as a State Registered Nurse and a Registered Mental Nurse. He also joined the Confederation of Health Service Employees (COHSE). In 1959, he began working full-time for the union, as its Northern Regional Officer. Three years later, he was promoted to become National Officer, then became Assistant General Secretary in 1969.
