Welcome to NUJ Extra

NUJ EXTRA is the charity for the National Union of Journalists (NUJ). As an NUJ member that makes it your union charity.

Every year we help NUJ members who have fallen on hard times by giving them one-off grants to help pay for urgent utility bills or to make adjustments to their home because of a sudden disability.

• We’ve helped members meet the cost of removal expenses to get away from violent partners and given them financial support whilst they got on their feet again.
• We’ve helped members pay the mortgage when they’ve had nowhere else to turn.
• We’ve helped single parents with young children and children who have, sadly, lost their parents.
• We’ve bought electric wheelchairs and repaired windows.
• And we maintain regular monthly payments to dependants of deceased NUJ members.
  

Every year we review the grants we make and it’s very rare that we do not make an increase. Add our very welcome Christmas bonus into this mix and you can see we really do provide that bit extra.

NUJ Extra is based at the NUJ's head office in London. The address is: Headland House, 308-312 Gray's Inn Road, London, WC1X 8DP.

If you have any questions regarding how we can help, please contact our administrator, Lena Calvert, on 020 7278 7916 or by email
