Mission and Values
 

Vison – To be the most valued provider of enrichment and personal development programmes and services in the region.

Mission   - To promise unrivalled enrichment, development and support services which transform lives.

Ethos - Creative, Challenging, Empowering – Always aligning ourselves with the humanistic approach putting scholars at the centre of everything we do.

We are a union led by students for students with a vision to play a key role in transforming the lives of students through support, representation and opportunities.

We are here to make student life outstanding and aim to do this by capturing Student Voice. With the help of elected Student Officers and Course Representatives, we want to hear your ideas, views and opinions on matters that matter to you as a student so that we can help improve college life for everyone.

As a union we are independent of the college, however, we work closely with them to ensure that students have the best experience during their time here.
