MEMBERSHIPS & PRICES:

Business Society membership is £10 for the entire year. This is a one-time fee, however there may be events where we charge an additional fee*, such as our balls and external social events. However, we will do our very best to keep costs down for our members. 
To access the sessions, you will need both the Union Pass (£5) and Society Membership (£10) The Union Societies Pass is a one-time fee that allows you to join our amazing Union societies. As a Union Societies member, you receive the following benefits:

-Access to join our range of Societies
-Societies have acccess to book rooms at the University
-Societies can apply for funding from the Union for their activities, events & trips
-Able to purchase tickets for the Society Awards
-Accident Insurance
The Union Societies Pass fees go straight back into funding out societies throughout the year and is not spent on anything else.
 

EVENTS:

We have an action-packed year ahead, with a number of events planned, such as:
-Networking
-Guest Speakers
-Fundraising & Volunteering Opportunities
-CV, Cover Letter, Application & LinkedIn Workshops
-Liberation Month Events
-> And so much more!
 
*No event where additional payment is expected will be mandatory, and so how much you invest into the society is entirely up to you. We encourage all students whose financial hardship may limit attendance to get in touch - we wish for everyone to be able to benefit from this society and be as inclusive and accessible as possible.
