The Best Student Life. Bristol SU

A banner with the section heading "networks". The background image is a student on stage in traditional dress at a Pan Africanism event.

Networks are an exciting way for students to build communities and create change through collective action. They are representative bodies that can lead campaigns, hold forums and organise social events.

Bristol SU has 18 Networks which are each led by an elected chair who is a current student. They are also supported by our Full Time Officers.

The Chair of Student Council supports all of the Networks to run democratically and work on policy.

Membership of Networks is free and open, just like membership of the Union. Find out more below:
