About the Students' Union
The Students’ Union is a student-led charity to help you make the most of your time at Surrey -
whether that’s supporting you, bringing people together, representing your academic issues, and
making opportunities to get involved. We're led by a team of student Sabbatical Officers (Sabbs)
that you elect each year, including a President and four Vice-Presidents, one for each Zone: Voice,
Activity, Community, and Support.
Our opportunities
We run and support a whole bunch of opportunities that you can get involved in. If you're keen to
gain new skills, take a visit to our brand new Skills Platform or volunteering page:
Or, if you're keen to meet new people and boost your employability, maybe joining some of more than
160 clubs and societies would be best for you - take a look by category above, or check out our quiz

different offerings.
There are opportunities for all students to engage with Team Surrey whether this be through
competitive and social sporting activity, our student membership deals or through our SurreyMoves+
online community.
The national lockdown means it may feel like a strange time to be considering university sport, but
our team are on hand to ensure you know what to expect when sport returns, while you can also take
part in virtual activity with us right now!

Surrey Sports Park student memberships
SSP’s Member Experience Manager Nathan Carr-Crompton guides us through the membership options
available to students when the first-class sporting venue reopens its doors after lockdown.
Finally, Sport Development Officer Fran Strange delivers a full overview of the SurreyMoves+ app

then be redeemed for rewards on the app, while users can also join challenges and private groups to
set personal and group goals.
