Union Supported Campaigns

The Students' Union gets involved in many different campaigns throughout the year. These can be on a national level, run locally or have impact on students' education.


NUS Campaigns

As the Students' Union is a part of the National Union of Students (NUS) we have many campaigns that are affiliated with the NUS. One major recent campaign has been the National Demo against higher tuition fees. NUS run a lot of campaigns such as campaigns which involve groups such as Black Students, Citizenship, Disabled students, Funding Our Future, Further Education, Global Justice, Green Zone, Higher Education, International Students, the list goes on....

Local Campaigns

Not only do we have NUS led campaigns but we also do our own local campaigns. These can be charity events, working in the community or involving member of the public with some parts of the Unions campaigns.

Recently we've had Breast Cancer Awareness Day, Fairtrade Fortnight, Movember & Dodgeball for testicular cancer awareness, Health & Wellbeing Day, fighting obesity, Red Nose Day. Within the community we've helped redecorate the Treforest Boys and Girls Club, help clean up a church grave yard.

We also like to involve the community in getting involved with the Union by inviting them to as many events as possible. Opening up events to the public is a great way to get ivolved with the community and we continually try to do this. Recent events open to the public hav included, International Day, Health and Well being Day, Farmers markets.



Educational Campaigns

Each year there are a number of campaigns which are targeted at students education, these are to benefit students in their university life. Past campaigns have been Getting quality feedback, Keep Wednesday afternoons free for sports, campaign for cheaper print charges, Hidden Course costs, Supporting the student voice through Course Reps and SVRs.
