Campaigns
Throughout the year, we’ll be leading on dozens of campaigns to ensure that your university experience is the best it can be. Here’s just a taster of what students have told us are top priorities. If you would like to get stuck in and help us campaign, then be sure to reach out to us!
Below you can view the priority campaigns for SUUG for 16/17. Each campaign is being led by one of your Officers. If you have questions or want to be involved then drop them an email.
Chill on the Hill (Avery Social Space)
With the Student Hub opening in Medway after Freshers and Dreadnought on the Greenwich Campus in a few years, it is easy to think “What about Avery Hill?” This year’s campaign looks at using student consultation on what they would like in terms of social space to lobby the University for the facilities those living and studying on that campus deserve and will use. We will be running various surveys, roadshows and focus groups for you to give your views on the development of Avery Hill so keep an eye out if you would like to work towards somewhere more than the Dome for Social Space!

Sexual Violence Policy
Did you know that nearly 1 in 5 students are sexually harassed in just their first week of coming to University? In recent years we have made progressive steps as a Students’ Union to create a zero tolerance safe space towards sexual harassment and assault but it’s time the University caught up with us. This year we will be working with the University to create a sexual violence policy that will mean that students have somewhere to go if they find themselves sexually assaulted whilst at University and the University will have to do something about it.

Mind Matters
We plan to work on improving the mental health of our students by ensuring the University carry out a review of their support services and provisions. We'll also aim to look at sexual health within our University, and look to work with local charities to identify how we can raise awareness that you lovely people are safe while getting to know eachother!

Your Hall Your Call
We plan to run a big consultation piece asking you what you think of Halls at two key-stages throughout the year. We'll then write this up in a report in order to tell the University what the key findings are – so watch this space, and look out for Luke Ellis, your VP Welfare around all three campuses to tell him what you think!
