Want to campaign for change?

Nominations are now open for the student elections, woooooo!!

Put your name forward for one of 22 places on Union Council, representing all groups within your student population from Disabled Students Officer and Environmental Officer to Mature Students Officer and LGBT+ Officer.

Or maybe represent the whole student body and nominate yourself to be a Sabbatical Officer? A full-time, paid role where you champion student causes and create awareness about stuff that matters to Christ Church students.

Nominations are open now until 25 Feb at ccsu.co.uk/elections. Want to know more? We’ll be around the campuses giving away breakfast goodies and are always available for a chat so come say hello.

Travel Campaign

The Sabbs are running a Student Travel Campaign to make travel to and from uni better for you.

We want your thoughts and experiences of travel so that we can lobby the university, taxi companies and bus providers to gain discounts, flat rate fees, additional routes and bespoke transport where you need it most.

Please give us your opinions so you can help us with the campaign.

Is your Student Rep the best? Who had the best society event?

Nominate them in the Student Activities Awards and show your support for societies, volunteers, fundraisers, Welcome Crew, Union Council, student reps, student media, and many more.

PLUS - this event is open to ALL students - you don’t have to be part of a society to come along or nominate.

Submit your nominations here and buy your tickets today!
