Unite Community membership
Being part of a trade union is not just about having a voice in the workplace, it’s about being part of a movement to create a better society.
Unite is now offering community membership to members of the local community who are not working. Whether you are unemployed, volunteering, retired, at school/college or university or raising children, there is a home for you in Unite.
As the biggest trade union in the UK and Ireland, Unite has negotiated great benefits and services for our members which we are now able to offer to our community members.
For just 55p per week or 65p if you pay into the Political Fund, you can become a member and have have access to a range of services and benefits designed to improve your life and protect your rights.
Most importantly, Unite will help you find your voice and shape your local community in a way that improves life for you and your family. For instance, we have campaigned against austerity cuts and harsh welfare benefit policy and rules, such as Universal Credit and sanctions.
