We're moving out of the HUBS and into brand-new spaces right at the heart of campus life.
We'll open the spaces in phases, with the move to our new Hallam SU headquarters - located right next to Owen's main entrance - set to happen this semester.
That means we'll be fully ready to host student activity and events in the new space from semester 2!
Hallam SU - Owen
Hallam's former Careers Connect building (located to the left of Owen's main entrance) is being transformed into our new Hallam SU headquarters. The new space will open this semester; we'll let you know exact dates when we have them.
This is your space. It's flexible, accessible, bookable; perfect for creating a constant flow of year-round student-led activities and events.
The space is a blank canvas - it's designed for you to use how you want. Just let us know your ideas and we'll help you bring them to life.
Imagine... a massive screen for film nights or gaming, a handy kitchenette for snacks and event prep, comfy seating for chilling and chatting, and a dedicated space to grab all your Hallam merch.
Plus, your usual SU support teams will be available upstairs and online.
Hallam SU - Owen, Hallam Square, Sheffield, S1 2LX
Transform the new space into anything you want...
Film nights · Society meet-ups · Gaming tournaments · Exhibitions · Open mic nights · Intimate gigs · Guest speakers · Bake sales · Food fairs · Makers markets · Vintage fairs · Sample sales · Skills workshops · Quiz nights · Book clubs
This is your space.

FAQs
Why are we moving from the HUBS?
Throughout our 22 years at the HUBS, the way Hallam students learn, socialise, and connect has totally changed. The HUBS simply doesn't provide the flexibility to support the diverse range of activities and services our modern, dynamic community needs. That's why we're creating new spaces that are as flexible and dynamic as you are.
Our goal is to create spaces that:
- redefine what a Students' Union means to every Hallam student.
- empower students to lead events, activities, and initiatives right at the heart of campus life.
- enable students to easily access our student services, regardless of who they are or where they are on campus.
Plus, with ongoing maintenance issues and high energy costs, maintaining the HUBS has become increasingly challenging and expensive.
That's a lot of time and money that could be better spent on you.
What will happen to the HUBS?
While the future of the HUBS building is currently undecided, the University has confirmed there are no plans to demolish it.
How can students book the new spaces?
The new spaces can be booked online via Resource Booker, the University's existing room booking platform.
