Do we need a Union?

On Saturday 11th October, SHAC will host a national conversation about forming a Tenants and Residents Union — a movement that could shift the balance of power in UK housing. This blog explores that question head-on: from broken complaint systems and regulatory dead-ends, to the power of coming together, sharing knowledge, and fighting for fairer, safer homes. Whether you’re ready, unsure, or still finding your voice — this is the start of something bigger.
