Trouble with your landlord?

Facing eviction? Worried about the rent? You’re not alone.

Each branch meets regularly so that we get to know our neighbours, make tea, break bread and share stories together. We discuss our housing problems and share ideas about how to get it fixed. If we don’t know, we figure it out together.

3 Ways To Get Support

3 reasons to join GMTU:

1. Solidarity

We know that we’re stronger when we’re united against landlords and estate agents who exploit us.

2. Community

We are a community of renters taking action together. We organise support, training, branch meetings and other events.

3. Action

We’re a fighting union taking action to transform our broken housing system and win homes for people, not private profit.
