Union Council

Representing students at Hallam

As the highest decision-making body within the Students' Union, it is comprised of Officers and Reps that represent a wide range of student groups, ensuring that we are the truly reflective voice of students at Hallam. There are also six elected open space reps that act as additional representatives of the student body.

Please email democracy@shu.ac.uk if you would like to attend as an observer or require support with working on a policy.

Upcoming dates

All students are welcome to attend Union Council sessions, though we ask that you let us know in advance so we can add your attendance to the minutes and send you the Microsoft Teams link.

Current policies

A policy is effectively an idea that a student, or a number of students, have had which they believe will improve the Hallam student experience. Once passed, policies are binding for three years - and the we need to work to make sure they happen!

You can request an update on any of our policies at any time. Just email us at uuscampaigns@shu.ac.uk.
