University of Essex Students' Union

Our mission is to support and champion our members like we would our own family. To be the most student focused organisation in the world.We offer our students open forums, open spaces and most importantly, open minds and space to be whoever, or do whatever.We’re a not-for-profit organisation and any money we make goes right back in to making life better for Essex students, and not into shareholder's pockets.If you're looking for an organisation where you won't get bored - you’re in the right place. We've been recognised nationally as an Investors in People Gold Standard organisation. This means that you can be sure we are committed to the development and happiness of our staff members and are always improving what we do.Our tattoos are what we stand for. They’re our values. If the SU were a person these would be the things that we believe in so much that we’d get them tattooed on our body:- Work hard, play hard- Shoulder to shoulder- Always challenge- Powered by students- No bullshit
