Greater Manchester Law Centre (GMLC) and Thompsons Solicitors are pleased to announce a community screening of Ken Loach’s latest highly acclaimed new film: Sorry We Missed You.

Sorry We Missed You starkly documents the issues facing millions of workers in the gig economy who work on “flexible” zero hours contracts with little job security and poor working conditions.

The Film will be followed by a presentation by Ken, on why he made the film and the political and social issues that the film highlights. There will be an opportunity for the audience to ask Ken questions too.

This event is a fundraiser for GMLC to support its work in providing free legal advice to the Greater Manchester Community and its campaign to promote free access to justice for all. For further information on GMLC’s work please visit:
