Student Union

The Students’ Union works to represent the students’ voice so that it can help the University make decisions which improve students’ experience. We also offer a number of services to assist students during their time at UWS:

Societies and Volunteering

You can join any society or create your own to reflect your own interests. This is a great way to make friends. We also provide volunteering opportunities to allow you to gain experience, or to give something back to the community.

Welfare Support

Studying and juggling all other aspects of your life can be difficult and the Union offers an independent advice service to help you explore your options when things don’t go as planned. We also have regular events to improve your wellbeing.

Representation

Our volunteer student reps help us to represent your voice to the University. Each class will have at least one student rep and your lecturer will talk to you about this in your classes. If you’re interested in becoming a rep – talk to your lecturer.

Social Events

We do provide events and entertainment – even at a distance. Check out our webpage for what’s on during Freshers! You can check out more information about these services at our website.
