Your Students’ Union (SU) is here throughout your degree and beyond, with opportunities to discover your passion, meet new people and develop your skills.
Whether you're part of our student groups, student-run services or trying your hand at volunteering with one of the many local and national opportunities on offer, your SU has something for you.
Why not consider taking on a role in our events team, organising events for thousands of students, a representation role, such as a course or education rep or an Officer, to make real positive changes for your fellow students.
Getting involved in your SU can help you:
- develop your leadership skills
- manage budgets and test your financial skills
- make a positive impact on people and their communities
- discover your hidden talents

Getting involved in the SU filled my CV and gave me crucial examples of event planning, campaigning, personal organisation, and even sitting on interview panels.
