Make A Change

Make A Change is a powerful tool which enables you to submit ideas to the Student Council to be voted and acted upon. If other students vote in favour of your suggestion, the SU will work towards implementing it! Your voice can and will make a change.

How Make A Change works for you

The Make A Change platform enables any student to submit an idea or campaign through the website without waiting for a rep meeting or Union General Meeting (UGM).

The proposal must:

  1. Have at least 25 likes, and 25 more likes than dislikes within 6 weeks of posting in order to be added to the SU Student Council agenda, otherwise it will be rejected.
  2. Be owned by a named student and have a clear impact that benefits members of the students' union.

The SU Student Council will then decide the future course of action for the proposal based on their powers and remit. The SU Student Council can vote to:

  • Allocate the task to one or more council members to take responsibility for it
  • Reject the idea
  • Request more information or more evidence of support

You can contact The SU team to find out more about how Make a Change works.

      Cash remains in the local economy without losing its value. £50 remains £50 after many cash transactions but not if it is digital with card charges. It is easier to budget and control. Card companies are the only ones who profit from it. Musicians, waiting staff & good service rely on it. It encourages tipping and interaction with who you are paying. A cashless society is a controlled society. Cards reveal your movements, your preferences and you are now on another list in the ether.
