Bristol SU recognises that the costs of participating in student groups can be prohibitively expensive for some students. The Activity Hardship Fund was created to support those students who wouldn't otherwise be able to participate in their chosen activity due to the cost.
About Us

We are always active in local politics and keen campaigners across the city, with a strong record of supporting Green candidates in elections and getting involved in environmental and social justice causes in the city.

Event Information
We are always thinking of new and exciting events to put on. On top of our regular campaigning and legendary socials, some of our previous events have included:
- Hustings with prominent local and national Green Party politicians, including Green Party of England and Wales Co-Leader and Bristol Central Member of Parliament Carla Denyer, Caroline Lucas MP, and House of Lords Peer Natalie Bennett.
- Talks on everything from local government to climate change to election strategy, from top experts in their fields.
- Combining politics and socialising with boozy, sober, and food-based socials.
- Collaborating with other UoB political societies, such as the 2022 'UoB does Question Time' event, 2023 'Politicial Socities Pub Quiz', and 2024 'VegSoc Litterpick'.
- And much more!
We try to make sure our events are free to attend whenever possible, but occassionally there will be priced tickets to cover organisational costs such as venue hire. Do get in contact with the SU hardship fund if ticket prices ever make something inaccessible for you. We also have a range of drinking and sober and indoor and outdoor events.
If you’re at all interested in Green politics and want to come along to our events or get involved with our local campaigns, this is the place for you! If you have any questions at all just reach out to one of social media pages and we'll be very happy to talk with you.
