Your Students' Union
Our students automatically become a member of our Students' Union, giving you access to all their events, activities and services. It's run by students for students, and there are lots of ways you can get involved.
Societies
One of the best ways to meet people with the same interests - or to try something completely new - is to join one of the union's societies. There are over 40 to choose from, covering everything from darts to films and rock music to cheerleading. And if you can't find the one you want, we'll help you start your own.
Volunteering
Our Students' Union volunteering schemes let you contribute to the community in and around Sheffield. You get the warm feeling of doing something good for others while building up experience, skills and knowledge to boost your CV. You could even be recognised at our annual awards for your work.
Representation
You can help shape the direction of the Union, by voting in elections, contacting your Union reps, or even standing to become a rep yourself. You can represent your fellow students on a range of issues, including academic matters, student media and societies.
Advice
The Union also has its own free, confidential and independent advice centre. You can talk to them about anything and everything, whenever you need to.
There is a genuine sense of community in Sheffield, and at Sheffield Hallam. Our job is to add to that by looking after the best interests of students.
