Impact Report Video
Watch now to see what your Guild has done for you and what’s planned for the coming year:
2023-24 was the second year of our current five-year strategy. We’re pleased to report that most of our results from the previous year were exceeded, with many of our targets for 2023-24 achieved.
The past year saw us testing some new ideas and approaches, implementing some new technology and reviewing various products and services, but you’ll get a better flavour of the year from our video.
Our ambition is to provide more opportunities for our members to connect and get involved; improve their academic experience and build even stronger peer to peer activities and student communities. And with over 24,000 students engaging with the Guild across the year, it’s clear we’re making strong progress towards these goals.
Welcome Week 2023 kicked off the first semester with over 12,000 attendees followed by Give it a Go helping student groups build their memberships to over 12,700 and 4 in 5 students telling us they were satisfied with the range of clubs and societies on offer. From taking part in a student group, attending a Guild event, using one of our services, such as advice, or taking part in our elections or all student votes, there’s so many opportunities for you to make friends, feel at home and thrive.
Our report provides the highlights from our work targeted at delivering the strategic aims set out in our 2022-27 Strategy, aims you told us were important to you and what you want your Guild focused on:
- Engagement and participation
- Representation and
- Community and Support.
You’ll also spot some awards and accreditations and not forgetting the many officer wins for students.
