A Network is a smaller collective of Students’ Union Reps that represent a particular group of students, liberation group or interests. Networks meet separately to Student Council to discuss Student Ideas and policies relevant to their area, and work together to create change within the Union, local and wider communities by running campaigns. Networks also meet monthly during term time.
To be part of a Network that represents a specific group of students, (such as a Liberation Group, student type or belief), you need to identify as part of that group to run for a position. For other networks that represent a particular interest, all you need is a passion for that area.
There are 15 Networks that make up Student Council, and the list of current Network Reps appear below:-
