The National Communications Union (NCU) was a trade union in the United Kingdom.

The union was founded in 1985 when the Post Office Engineering Union and the Postal and Telecommunications Group of the Civil and Public Services Association merged. In 1995, it merged with the Union of Communication Workers to form the Communication Workers Union.[http://www.warwick.ac.uk/services/library/mrc/ead/135C.htm National Communications Union 1982-95] Archives
