Clubs & Societies

Start a Club or Society

 

Can’t find a society that caters for your interests and want to start your own? All you need is an idea and 20 people willing to join your group. Just follow the steps below to start your own society.


1. Complete a Student Activity Formation Form

You can download a Student Activity Group formation form (doc) from this website or pick up one from the LUU Helpdesk.
Return your completed form to LUU's Activities Officer either on email or drop it into the Student Exec Office, on the first floor of the Union building.


2. Meet with the relevant Development Coordinator and the Activities Officer.

Development Coordinators are based in the ARC, upstairs in the Union building. They provide support and help to activity groups. You can find out more about the Development Coordinators here


3. Help starting your new society

There’s plenty of support available to new societies; you’ll be introduced to your Activities Officer and Development Coordinator.

To help you start your activity, we have the Give it a Go programme. Anyone who wants to start an activity will be offered the chance to run a session as part of Give it a Go to encourage people to come along to the activity and join in. This is a great chance to introduce your society to the student body and let them see what you’re about.

If you need help regarding your club and society, the Development Coordinators, who work in the Union's ARC (the Activities and Resource Centre), provide support, advice and help with all student activities. Each Development Coordinator is responsible for a different group of activities. Find out who your Development Coordinator is!
