Union Council

Union Council is the event where all of the decisions which are important to the Union’s work on improving the student experience are made.

Here’s what Millie, our previous VP Full-time & Part-time Education had to say about it:

All students are welcome to come and give their opinions – so come and give yours!

The Officers of the union will present a report from the board of trustees – so come and make sure you know what’s going on!

The Officers will also tell attendees about what they are doing to improve the university experience for students – so come and hold them accountable!

Students will also be able to give their opinions about proposals for change which are discussed and voted upon – so come and have your say!

If you have an idea and want to make a change please post it here! sunderlandsu.co.uk/makeithappen

Once it gets enough support (usually 20 students liking it), if necessary you'll invited to complete a Council Policy Template (we'll give you support!) & send it to jason.bridgewater@sunderland.ac.uk for inclusion in the agenda and potential approval by Council.
