We are sorry to hear that you are thinking of leaving us. Before cancelling your membership, we strongly encourage you to consider the following information.

 

  • Member benefits: From legal assistance to discounts, your membership goes beyond supporting you in the workplace. For more information on the services and benefits you will lose access to, click here.
  • Retired: If you have been a GMB member for more than 5 years and are due to or have fully retired from work, then you are eligible for a retired life membership, which is FREE of charge! Retired members enjoy the same services and benefits as paying members.
  • Unemployed/Sick/Maternity/Paternity: If you have left work, been made redundant, or have had your pay reduced due to sickness or maternity/paternity leave then you are still eligible to be a GMB member and may be entitled to pay a reduced rate whilst still accessing all our services and benefits.
  • Changed jobs: If you have changed your role, workplace or employer then you can update your details. GMB is a general union, we cover the vast majority of workers.

 

If you are unsure whether you are still eligible to be a member, please contact us.

 

When it comes to union membership, it is not a question of whether you can afford it, but a question of whether you can afford to be without it.

 

If you still want to cancel your membership, please submit your request in writing to our regional office postal address: FREEPOST GMB NORTH WEST & IRISH

 

Please note that this address is for North West & Irish region members only. For members in other regions, please click here to find the correct region and details to cancel your membership.
