Christian Union

About us

Royal Holloway Christian Union is a group of students from a range of local churches who join together to give everyone at uni an opportunity to engage with the life-changing message of Jesus. We are a community for absolutely anyone – whether you are a Christian or simply want to find out more about the Christian faith!

We’d love to meet you at our regular 'CU Central' meetings every Thursday (start at 19.30), where you can find out more about us, meet other friendly students, and discover more about Christianity in an open and honest environment.

We also love to grow as a community during the week through prayer meetings, socials, small groups and linking with our local churches across the whole year! We also come together to reach campus with events like our Christmas Carol service, Collab events with other societies and our Events Week in February.

We're so excited to welcome you all!
