Welcome to the section for all the info you need to know about Student Union Activities, be it what they are, how to join, or how to organise and run one...if i know it, its here!
In the students union we realise that being a student is about so much more than lectures and studying: its also about learning new and interesting skills, discovering who you are, and making friends for life. and one great way of doing that is to join one or more of the student activities we help organise.
Each year students get together and come up with a huge range of things to occupy their time with, from sporting activities, hobby groups, religious groups, political organisations, charitable causes, campaign groups, academic groups, or just groups for people to get together.
Last year we had 68 Activities, and this year we are hoping for more! Many from last year will reform, but some wont, but also new and interesting ones are always cropping up! So far we have 46 in Semester A alone.
Click HERE for a list of official groups, and check your e-mail regularly for SUActive, an interactive email newsletter full of updates, news, events, etc, also look out for the NEW SUactive magazine.
So, have a look, and get involved!
But what if i dont see anything i like?
Well, YOU can start anything! All we need is 10 students to all sign up to it, plus a completed registration form.
The deadline for Semester A has passed, but you can still prepare yourselves for Semester B
Registration forms will be available from 22nd Sept, as will membership facilities. In the mean time, please have a look at some of the regulations.

The Most Gruesome Death
There was a long, long line of spirits at the gate waiting to get into heaven. Not all these spirits could fit into heaven, so the ones who died the worst death would be allowed in.
The first man in line started telling his story, "Well, Peter, you see, I knew that my wife was cheating on me so I decided to come home early from work one day to catch them in action. I got home and searched all over but I couldn't find him. Then when I walked out onto the balcony, there he was dangling off the darn thing by his fingertips. So I ran and got a hammer then started beating him with it and he fell. Well, the fall didn't kill him, because he landed in a bush so I picked up the refrigerator and threw it on him. Although that killed him, the strain gave me a heart attack, and here I am."
The next man came up and started his story. "St. Peter, I always work out on my balcony on the 14th floor of my apartment building. I was on my bike one day and I fell off when it flipped. I sailed over the rail and I thought "Please God spare my life" and he did. I caught on to a balcony below me. I was even happier when a man discovered me hanging there. But all of a sudden he started beating my hands with a hammer so I fell again. But the dear Lord saved me again when I landed in a bush. But I'm here now because the guy threw his refrigerator on top of me."
It was now the third guy's turn to start his story. "Well, Peter, just picture this. I'm hiding butt naked in this married chick's refrigerator....."
Sensitive Beer
Three hicks were working on a telephone tower - Steve, Bruce and Jed. Steve falls off and is killed instantly.
As the ambulance takes the body away, Bruce says, "Someone should go and tell his wife."
Jed says, "OK, I'm pretty good at that sensitive stuff, I'll do it."
Two hours later, he comes back carrying a case of beer.
Bruce says, "Where did you get that, Jed?"
"Steve's wife gave it to me," Jed replies.
"That's unbelievable, you told the lady her husband was dead and she gave you beer?"
Well, not exactly", Jed says. "When she answered the door, I said to her, 'You must be Steve's widow'."
She said, "No, I'm not a widow!"
And I said, "I'll bet you a case of Budweiser you are.
