Danielle is here to help support you in setting up and running your very own society, whether that’s finding venues, booking trips, arranging guest speakers or helping you to promote societies events and campaigns.

Whether you’re a new or returning student, societies are a great opportunity to try something different, meet up with friends and enhance your university experience. We have over 50 societies to choose from and there’s no limit on how many you can join! Whether you’re interested in sports, arts and crafts or faith, there is something for everyone.

Get in touch if you have any questions about memberships!
