We won’t take the housing crisis lying down
We are a democratic, member-led union, working across the 10 boroughs of Greater Manchester. We organise and represent our members in the private and social rented sector. We fight for safe, secure and affordable housing for everyone. We are not affiliated to any political party.
We know the system is stacked against tenants and working people
The only way we can fight back is by organising and coming together. Collectively, we can take on the landlords and win.
Trouble with your landlord?
Facing eviction? Worried about the rent? You’re not alone.
Join GMTU to get union support to challenge your landlord and fight for better housing conditions for renters across Greater Manchester.
Hundreds of renters across Greater Manchester have joined GMTU, solved their renting problems with the support of our union and been inspired to get involved in our work helping to change renting for good.
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.

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.
