� Come and see the Cycling City team at the Freshers' Fair and find out how we can get you started.
Ambition - Diversity - Honesty - Respect - Trust
What you hold in your hands is a guide to making the most of your first few weeks at UWE. You will have the time of your life at university and UWE Students’ Union (UWESU) is here to make sure you gain the best possible experience.
We all know you work towards a qualification when you come to university, but there’s so much more you can do while you’re here. Even UWE’s Vice Chancellor Steve West will tell you there’s more to life than academia. University is a time to find new interests, develop existing ones and most of all discover who you are and who you want to be. UWE is a thriving community made up of a whole range of different people and the Students’ Union strives to bring them all together, in a harmonious kind of way! There is no doubt that UWESU will be at the heart of your social, cultural and political experience while you’re at UWE.
This guide will explain what UWESU is all about, the bits that are vital to you and more importantly what you can expect during your Freshers’ Week. Freshers’ Week fills the start of your university experience with a chance to get involved with what UWESU has to offer. We want you to have the best possible start to your time at UWE, so we hold the largest Freshers’ Fair in the country and host many exciting club nights and parties during the week. All in your honour! Tickets sell out fast so check out the Freshers’
website: www.uwesu.org/freshers2010 to make sure you don’t miss out on some of the biggest events during Freshers’ Week.
Until then, have a great summer and we look forward to seeing you in September!

A core principle of UWESU is that it is run by students for students. This is not only achieved by the election of four students as Presidents of UWESU, but by various other means that put UWE students and their views at the heart of the Union. UWESU hold regular Council Meetings; these Councils are Sports, Activities and Student Representatives. To get involved contact any of the elected Presidents or just pop into your SU campus office.
ElectionsThere are many opportunities for you to get involved and influence the direction of your Union. You could stand for election and become a President. The main elections take place in March when you will have the joy of seeing hundreds of campaign posters plastered to every pin board, bus stop and window! You also have the opportunity to choose to vote for various part time and full time postions. Look out for further information in February.
Annual General Meeting In November UWESU’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) is held. This is the highest-level policy and decision making forum, where all students can come and vote on what the Union does and what it stands for.

HOW?Reps for each course and level will be elected in your faculty in the first few weeks of term. If you don’t know who is arranging this, ask a module or programme leader, or contact us at the email address below.
Once you have become a Student Rep you will receive training and support from the Students’ Union and will be able to get involved with lots of different aspects of the Union. So get in touch!
WHAT?Student Reps are your link to feeding back on your student experience to the University. Every course at every level should have at least one Student Rep. If you have an issue specifically about your course or the University in general you can take it to your Student Rep and they will be able to help. They are also the ones the University asks when they want student opinion so it’s important to tell them what you think. If you don’t know who your rep is, contact us at the email address below.

Every single sports club is run for students by students. All our students are democratically elected to be on a committee – one day it could be you! Each club has a stall at the Freshers’ Fair, so you can find out all about them there. Make the most of UWESU and your time at University by enjoying what’s on offer! UWESU Sport provides you with free and subsidised training, trips, clothing, socials, courses etc … so there’s no excuse not to get involved!

As long as it is led by you we will help you along the way, and even give you the opportunity to apply for up to£100 tokick-start your idea.

Whatever you’re interested in, your Volunteer Support Officer Helen Seacombe can help you find a volunteering project that is right for you.
Raise and Give (RAG)Raise and Give is your one-stop shop for fun, frolics and fundraising, all in the name of charity. Last year RAGraisedover£14,000whichincludedthefirsteverrunning of Jailbreak, which saw over 60 teams tryand get as far as possible away from UWE without spending any money - the winners got to New York! In February they host the awe-inspiring RAG Week with events to include Cabaret, Speed Dating, Comedy Nights and the Bristol Mega Raid where we join with RAGs from across the country to descend on Bristol to raise money for local charities. There are plenty of opportunities to get involved throughout the year so if you think you’d like to get involved in something fun for a good cause look no further than RAG. If you’d rather leave the organisation to someone else, then just have a great time knowing that you’re helping local and national charities.
Activities at UWESU include societies, student media, entertainments and volunteering. Getting involved in these activities is a great way to meet people with similar interests and are a perfect way to learn new skills. Employers today are looking for more than just a degree, so getting involved in Union activities is a great way to boost your job prospects.
UWESU offers a diverse range of societies providing something for everyone including many cultural, music, interest, religious, political and performance societies. All of the societites listed opposite will be at Frenchay’s Freshers’ Fair so come and see what they get up to.

Campus FairsBower Ashton, a combined Glenside and St Matt’s and a Hartpury fair are all taking place as well as the large Frenchay Fair. These mini-fairs on each campus give you an introduction to sports and societies as well as campus based activities, local and more specialist course focused stalls.

So what is Freshers’ Week?Well, it’s a mix of all things exciting. It’s the time your Students’ Union spends letting you know what’s out there. Freshers’ Week is actually a tad longer than just the standard seven days and it has some amazing entertainment, activities and opportunities. Not only will we be showing you how to have a good time (like you don’t know!) but also keeping you up to speed with what we can offer you throughout the year.
Freshers’ Week and university life in general is what you make of it, and we think we’ve got it down to a fine art. Push your boundaries and enjoy yourself, without becoming the laughing stock of your campus! Our job is to enhance your experience whilst studying at UWE, and what better time to start than the beginning?
Alex, Freshers’ Team
Freshers’ RepsThis elite, rowdy bunch of students can be seen running around Frenchay and the City Centre in pink t-shirts. If you’re not enjoying Freshers’ Week it’s their job to make sure you are! The Freshers’ Reps and the Event Operators (in black) will know everything about Freshers’ Week (such as which band are playing when) so throw your questions their way.

THE DEFINITIVE STUDENT DISCOUNT CARD
NUS EXTRA
Welcome! It’s a huge honour to be able to write to you as the new President of the National Union of Students. As the representative voice for students across the UK, NUS has a proud history of standing up for the rights of students, and fighting to ensure you can gain access to a world-class education system.
NUS has played a critical role defending your rights and winning campaigns to make student life better. In the last two years we have clawed back millions of pounds for students to fight for interest-free student overdrafts, won a national tenancy deposit scheme to make sure you get your money back and conducted ground breaking research into the student experience to ensure your academic and welfare issues are prioritised within your university or college.
The year ahead promises to be both exciting and challenging. NUS will be leading the fight to oppose any increase in tuition fees, whilst fighting for a fairer alternative altogether. NUS will be working with SUs to support them in their efforts, and will also be holding a National Demonstration later this year to show our opposition. Watch this space!
But we won’t just be fighting on fees. Accommodation, feedback, contact time, quality of teaching, environmental issues, supporting students’ unions, hidden course costs, liberation, global justice, volunteering, employability, academic representation... and so much more are all on the agenda as we are determined to help make your student life better.
NUS has a long history at leading the fight to ensure students can get the best deal possible, I’m really looking forward to my term in office and helping to make the lives of students even better!
In unity,Aaron Porter, NUS National President

HAPPY SAVING!
Some helpful tips from UWESU’s Advice Centre / Things to do before you get here:
1. Sort out your paperwork - birth certificate, medical card, LA award letter, UWE acceptance letter and National Insurance No.
2. Make an appointment with your doctor to get vaccinated against Meningitis C. Everyone who hasn’t been vaccinated needs to do this, regardless of age and it will be easier to do through your own doctor.
3. Get a medical kit - all the student essentials - paracetamol, glucose tablets for energy, vitamin C cold treatment to ward off the usual bout of ‘Freshers’ Flu’.
4. Stock up on food for a week or two - to make sure you don’t spend valuable settling-in time wandering the aisles of Tesco!
5. Grab a cookbook and basic cookery equipment - whatever is provided in your house / flat is never enough.
6. Read your accommodation contract before you sign it! If in doubt contact the Students’ Union Advice Centreon01173282676.
7. Fill out the inventory for your accommodation accurately - if you tell the landlord it’s broken before you move in, they won’t be able to charge you when you leave.
The UWESU Advice Centre offers independent and confidential advice, support and representation on issues including academic, accommodation, employment, funding and more.

MoneyManaging your money at University can be difficult. Living and studying can be a very expensive experience. Be prepared to have a blow out during Freshers! If possible try and save some money during the summer, as you may be spending quite a bit during the first few weeks with the possibility of moving into new accommodation, buying books, partying etc.
Choosing the right student-friendly bank account is a big decision, so shop around for the best deals and free goodies.
Perhaps the best advice is to have a think about budgeting and work out what your expenses will be.

The main SU Advice Centre office is located on the 2F patio, next to the JobShop, at Frenchay and is staffed by two experienced advisers. We also have a third experienced adviser based at Glenside on a Monday and Wednesday, and at Bower on a Tuesday, during term time.

Glenside is well known for its sense of community and friendship, with an active student Campus Committee, aka Glenside Angels, who play a vital part in putting on an unforgettable Welcome Weekend and Freshers’. There are plenty of ways to become involved and get more out of your time at UWE than just a degree. Glenside students tend to work hard, but play even harder.

FRENCHAYFrenchay Campus is the place where most students are based and thus where most of the activity happens. So during Freshers’ Week this is where all the major events take place; from the big Welcome Party, to the celebrated Freshers’ Fair. Frenchay is home to most of UWESU’s services and in the UWESU building (F Block) you can find the Presidents, the Advice Centre, the JobShop, the Media Centre (home to the student newspaper, Western Eye, and the Hub radio station) and the Sports and Activities Centre (which caters for all sports and societies). If you feel like a drink or something to eat then UWESU offers two bars, Escape and Red Bar, and if you need to grab a snack or pick up a newspaper then there is the Union shop.
If entertainment or relaxation is needed the UWESU bars are open in the evening so join in the quiz nights, watch live football, play pool, see live bands or party the night away at the weekly events. The Universityhasitsbars,coffeeshops,arefectory,24hourlibrary,receptionandITlabs.
