The National Union of Students (NUS) is a national union that represents hundreds of different Students' Unions from universities and colleges across the country (including the University of Suffolk Students' Union).

National Conference
Voting is now open to choose your final NUS Conference Delegate!
Each year the National Union of Students (NUS) holds its annual conference where Students' Unions across the country come together to discuss and vote on ideas to improve the student experience at a national level.
Your NUS Delegates will represent the views of University of Suffolk students at the conference, so it's really important you vote to choose who they are!
You can vote for your delegates below- polls close on Wednesday Feb 1st, 5pm!
Questions about elections or NUS Conference? Email su.democracy@uos.ac.uk.
We held elections for our delegate roles last term and elected two delegates, alongside Alex who is attending as President. We have one more place available to fill and it needs to be filled by someone who self-identifies as a woman as NUS require our delegation to be gender-balanced. If you have any questions about this please contact su.democracy@uos.ac.uk
No elections are currently running
After our recent elections Leesha Daniels and Jamie Steele have been elected as your NUS delegates! They will join your President Education, Alex, in attending NUS National Conference in March, representing Suffolk students on national student issues!
We still have one spot left to fill for our delegation, so if you're interested in heading to conference, please email su.democracy@uos.ac.uk. In order to ensure our delegation is gender-balanced this role is only open to those students that define as women.
Want to stay part of the conversation ahead of conference? We'll be running a series of workshops to help students understand conference and the ways we as a Union can influence it - you'll learn all about what our delegates will be doing at conference, and have a chance to express your views on national issues to our delegates, which will inform how they vote when they are at conference. Keep an eye here and on our social media for more details on these workshops in the near future.
