The Communication Workers Union (CWU) is the biggest union for the communications industry in the UK with 250,000 members. It was formed in January 1995 when the Union of Communication Workers joined forces with the National Communications Union.

•  to expand trade union membership throughout the communications industry;

•  to promote, by industrial and political means, the success of the industries in which our members work

•  to campaign against all forms of discrimination;

•  to further these objectives by promoting the influence of the union throughout the national and international community.
