CCSU Celebrates Awards are back for 2026! Help the Students' Union and the University in recognising the efforts of our student volunteers and representatives by nominating them for an award. Award categories include: Student Rep of the Year, Community Organiser of the Year, Undergraduate and Postgraduate Mentor of the Year as well as several awards for our student Ambassadors.

This February brought a range of engaging activities for our students. Highlights included Molly's 'Don’t Burn Out' campaign, a letter writing session with local MPs, and the creation of pronoun badges for LGBT+ History Month. We also celebrated our grand opening and planned exciting events for the months ahead.

From 1 May 2026, the Renters’ Rights Act will come into force. In general, it will provide better protections to renters, however, it might also bring new complexities for some.
