Campaigns.
Throughout the course of a year, the Students' Union will tackle a number of campaigns. This can take the form of a week of action, a liberation history month, or a year-long agenda where we try to create positive changes for students. Our campaigns can involve events, lobbying the University and other organisations, taking part in national demonstrations and more.
These campaigns are generally led by a Sabbatical Officer or one of our Student Leaders, but any student can get involved or lead a campaign that is close to their heart while receiving the Students' Union backing. On this page, you'll find all the campaigns we're working on so make sure to check them out.
