There is a proud past of trade unionism in my industry, but I never realised the benefits of the protection at work I'd receive from GMB until I joined. Being a GMB member supports me in my apprenticeship, helps keep me safe at work and helps me secure a decent future. Kathleen Mcgarrity I think there should be more opportunities out there for everyone to get involved, and I'm really happy my union is campaigning for decent apprenticeships for young people.
