​
Hartpury Students’ Union is here to provide you with representation, guidance and opportunities whether you are a college or university student. We want you to get involved and will support you regardless of your course, level or study or background. Watch our overview video here!
​
We are run by students for students. Each year you will get the opportunity to elect your officers (you might even decide to stand yourself!). They are all current students so know what it’s like to be studying (and living) at Hartpury and really do understand your needs.
​
Representation
Your officers represent you locally and nationally and play a key role in the direction and strategy of the students’ union. Your Representation Officer works with volunteer student reps to embrace and share the student voice at Hartpury. They attend meetings at various levels of the college and university ensuring that your voice is heard.
​
Guidance
Starting college or university, being away from home for the first time and coping with life in general can be tricky sometimes. Your students’ union is here to support you and can help you find the additional support you need – whether that is help with study skills, mental health and wellbeing, financial difficulties or dealing with an un-cooperative landlord, we can get you in touch with the specialists who can help. We also run campaigns to promote a positive environment at Hartpury.
​
Opportunities
Being at college or university is a brilliant time to try new things and we want to provide as many opportunities as we can to allow you to do that. We promote a range of events and activities and jobs and volunteer opportunities for you to get involved in! We’ve got some amazing clubs and societies too – take a look here.
We’re proud of our #puryfam and know that feeling part of the family is a really important element of your time at Hartpury.
