We are Hallam Students’ Union

We’re your gateway to a world of exciting events and enriching new experiences. We make the good times better, open up life-changing opportunities, fight for your rights, and support you if things go wrong.


Great times

Let’s face it; you’re not just here to study. You’re here for a good time too.

Our jam-packed events calendar will help you fill your diary and get the most out of life in our lovely, lively city.

Meet like-minded folks over music, comedy, theatre and film. Treat your taste buds and your wardrobe at markets. Take your interests outside your lectures with society-run fun and day trips. Try out a new hobby. Let off steam in the great outdoors. Or let loose on a dance floor.

Have fun

Real change

You have the power to make change happen. And we’re here to help you realise it.

Big or small, your thoughts and ideas matter. We know there’s always room for improvement. That goes for the uni, wider society and right here at the union too.

You can come to us to vent about any niggles with your course. We’ll give you space to flag concerns about life both on and off campus. And we’ll connect you with others who are pushing for real, tangible change.

Together, let’s take action – and get everyone to take notice.
