We also offer our members extra benefits, such as free legal advice, a free will-writing service, and discounted motor, home and travel insurance.
We are a campaigning union and work hard to get our voice - YOUR voice - heard on a variety of subjects such as fair pay, pensions, just terms and conditions, health and safety, equal opportunities and politics. We are affiliated to the TUC and UNI.
Our strength comes from working and campaigning together. Please join us if you haven't already or use the links to the left hand side to find out more about our campaigns and the work we do to support our members.
