Student Groups & Societies

Leading a student group or Society is a great opportunity for you as an individual to develop new skills, make new friends and give back to our campus community. You may be interested in starting a new group, or "adopting" groups that need new leaders.

 

Leading a society at Your Students’ Union is an extremely rewarding experience for any student. These voluntary roles equip you with a whole range of new skills such as:

  • Effective oral and written communication
  • Financial management
  • Project planning and execution 
  • Team management and leadership

You can also get rewarded by our very own Leadership Awards and Leadership Badgeswhich are compatible with LinkedIn and recognised by employers.

If this sounds like something you want to be involved with, come and chat with us about the next steps that you want to take.

Have a browse through our dormant societies below and if you can't find what you are looking for, why not start a new society?

To adopt a dormant society or start a new society, simply fill out this form and someone from our team will get back to you.

If you would like more information, please email london.su@coventry.ac.uk 

 

Lead An Established Society To Success

This is like a fast-track version of starting a new society.

The Societies below have previously been active but currently do not have a student committee leading them. A selection of them may have some money in their account, some resources and members wanting to join. They need a President, Inclusions Officer, Treasurer and you can add additional roles of your choice e.g. Vice President, Events Manager, Social Media Coordinator.

That’s where you come in. If you want to take on a leadership role in any of the Societies listed below then all you need to do is complete the adoption form here and send it to London.su@coventry.ac.uk. They are voluntary roles that provide you with a range of skills that would look great on your CV to future employers. We will provide you with committee training so you are ready to take on your new role, and we will support you throughout the year to lead the society to success. If you would like more information please email London.su@coventry.ac.uk
