Greater Manchester Citizens

Who are we?

We are Greater Manchester Citizens, a Citizens UK Chapter. 250,000 people form our alliance from mosques, churches, synagogues, trade unions, schools, universities and faith groups.

Together, we organise to tackle injustices in our local communities.

Since our founding in 2016, we have campaigned to:

Make the University of Manchester become a Living Wage accredited employer.
Received ongoing support from Mayor Andy Burham and the Police and Crime Commissioner for our Misogyny Is Hate campaign.
And much more!

What are we fighting for?

The priority issues voted on by members in our community include::

Ending child poverty in our communities.
Fair work, including a real Living Wage for workers.
Mental health support.
Clean air for local people.
