What is the Students' Union?

The Students’ Union (SU) is led by students and dedicated to representing your voice, organising events, and creating a vibrant College experience.

Every student automatically becomes a member of the SU when they join us, giving you the opportunity to get involved, share your ideas, and help shape student experiences.

The SU is led by the Students’ Union President, Mimi, who works closely with the Student Experience Officer, Sean, to support clubs, societies, and enrichment activities across the College.
