We Want Your Ideas

Your Students’ Union is your voice. Give us your ideas and we will shout about them. 

Got an idea about how your Union could change? Want to improve your University? Or make a positive impact on the local community? Submit your ideas to our ideas platform.   

Any student can submit their idea at any time of year. Your idea will then go live on our ideas platform, and if 50 students up vote your idea will go to Student Senate. Student Senate meets five times per annum, and it is the job of Student Senate to compile debated and discussed your ideas and decide whether they should become Union policy.  

If your idea is approved, it will become Union policy. That means the leaders of your Union, the Sabbatical and Campaign Officers, will work to implement your idea with the help of other students.
