Our Branches
The Greater Manchester Tenants Union rests on a network of branches, usually in a particular neighbourhood, that allows people to take action on local issues. These branches have an elected leadership, and are accountable both to local members and to the union as a whole.
Don't worry if you can't see a branch in your area - if you're having problems, we can still help you. Better still, get together with others in your community and speak to us about setting up a branch!
