Spaces for social activities, events, meetings and more.
Providing flexible students spaces on campus is one of the SU's main priorities, and in recent years we have worked with the University to deliver a number of different social, meeting, and activities spaces. Most of these are located in the SU in the Riverside Building, but we also have areas and workshops in other buildings on campus, at student accommodation, and in the local community.
