The Bristol SU Society Awards is a celebration of our incredible student groups and their achievements throughout the 2017-18 academic year! This is the inaugural outing of the event and received 291 nominations, so our nominees beat off some stiff competition.

The winners will be announced at a gala dinner event on Wednesday 6 June, in the Anson Rooms. Tickets can be purchased here.

So, without further ado; here are the nominees (in no particular order!) for the 2018 Bristol SU Society Awards:
