Who We Help

Community is proud of its diversity and equality. We represent members and their families across all industries and sectors in the UK. Unlike many other unions that specialise in specific job markets, Community is proud to be an inclusive organisation; welcoming anyone as a member, regardless of the sector they work in, how they work, or where they live. In this section we talk about some of the sectors we currently support.

White collar and Professional

If you work in finance, administration, personnel, sales or many other white collar or professional roles, then Community has got experience of representing people like you.
We've been looking after white collar workers, middle-managers and professionals in traditional industries for many years.

Football coaches and scouts

Football is an ever-changing industry. The public is all too aware of how this affects those in public view like managers and players. This affects backroom staff too, without whom the industry couldn't operate. Community is here to protect you.

Charity workers

Community is here for all charity workers…from the brave people on the front line – to the vital back-office support staff, fundraisers, marketing and administrative staff. We are proud to support those working in the charity sector.

Social Care workers

Community is uniquely suited to respond to the everyday needs of workers in the Social Care sector. We recognise that workers in Social Care are often overworked and under paid. And we are dedicated to campaigning and organising on their behalf.

Blind and Disabled workers

If you believe that disabled people are severely disadvantaged in terms of employment opportunities, access to the built environment, transport, communications and other issues, then we need you to join us to add your voice to our campaign for full civil rights and an end to discrimination against disabled people.

Prison workers

Community represents more people employed in the privatised justice and custodial sectors than any other UK trade union. Wherever you work in the private sector, whatever your role in justice services, Community is here to help protect you and your family.

Betting shop workers

Community is the union for betting shop workers, giving a voice to betting shop workers like you at independents and across all of the major chains. We want to ensure that all staff are respected and protected at work.

Steel & Wire Industry

Community has been representing workers in the Steel & Wire industry for almost 100 years. We support steelworkers and contractors in steel companies across the country. Community is the largest trade union within Tata Steel Europe.

Mail and delivery workers

Community is the union for Whistl, the specialist mail and delivery company, formerly called TNT Post. We also support and represent self-employed and contract workers in the post and parcel sector.
