Welcome to the University of Northampton Students’ Union!
We are a registered charity completely independent from the University. Led by students, backed by volunteers and staff, we seek to ensure that our students time at the University is the best it can possibly be – that it is rewarding, fulfilling and memorable.
All students automatically become members of the Students’ Union- a vibrant community of 15000 – as soon as they enrol and it’s absolutely free. Our members are entitled to all of our services and opportunities, including sports, societies, volunteering, advice and representation, our retail outlets and our nightclub.
We have over 40 Sports Clubs to choose from, ranging from cheerleading to rugby, plus diverse and popular societies including the Geography Society, Meditation Society, Chinese Cultural Society, and Doctor Who Society! And if Students can’t find the one they’re looking for, we support them to start their own!
We also provide academic representation. Through our democratically elected Sabbatical Officers and Student Representatives we offer support when students need their voice to be heard, from queries about courses or accommodation, or just feeling a bit homesick. The Students’ Union is always here for our members.
Our Values Are: Ambitious & Driven, Student Led, Welcoming, Dynamic & Fun, Sustainable and Collaborative
