Newcastle University Union Society provides advice, support and services to our diverse student community of over 18,000 members. Run by students for students, the Union Society stands at the hub of the busy, city centre University campus and provides everything our members might need during their time at Newcastle University, responding to and representing the needs of students. The Union Society houses live events, six bars, food outlets, a shop and Post Office, making day to day life more enjoyable and convenient for our members. The Union Society isn't only about providing students with a place to eat, drink and socialise - it also runs a range of support services and activities including clubs and societies, the Student Advice Centre, the Job Shop and Nightline. Above all, the Union Society values democracy, diversity, fun, student ownership, quality and value, and continuously strives to reflect these values in all of its services.
