Sheffield Hallam Students’ Union

The union, located in the HUBS, is where you can get involved in societies, sports, social events, local volunteering opportunities and use the free advice centre. All our students are automatically members of the Student’s Union so you can come and use their services or get involved with activities straight away. You can also get involved by becoming a student representative, writing for the student magazine, campaigning on student welfare issues and much more.
