Welcome to your Students' Union

We're an independent, student-led organisation that represents your needs, protects your rights and, when it comes to making important decisions that affect you, makes sure your voice is heard. And you're automatically a member when you join the University of Nottingham.

We might not be able to give you the Welcome you're expecting this year, but despite social distancing measures and other extra precautions, we're excited to show you everything your SU has to offer. From activities, events, sports, societies and volunteering opportunities to making changes to our democracy and finding support when you need a helping hand, Welcome is your introduction to who we are and what we do.

Covid-19: keeping you safe

We know everything is still strange and uncertain right now, and the situation is changing all the time, but your SU is still working to support you and finding ways to give you the best possible introduction to your SU.

With social distancing and other extra precautions - including wearing masks - our fair, events and activities will be different this year, but no less spectacular, and we're doing everything we can to make sure your first taste of life at Nottingham is welcoming, reassuring and, above all, safe.

Find out how we're working with the University to make your Welcome Covid secure.




Here's what your SU can do for you...

We've organised loads of exciting Welcome Week activities - both online and in person - that showcase everything your SU offers, and all while keeping you safe.

We can't wait to see you!
