Winter Fest - 

Thank you to everyone who got involved in Winterfest this year, it was great to see so many students taking part and enjoying themselves.

We know that getting back into the swing of things after the winter break can be hard, and we hope we managed to spread some joy with our events.

So whether you grabbed some free snacks, took part in one of our bookable events, or just popped in to hug some animals, we hope you had the best time.

 

SU Election News - 

Yes, you’ve heard correctly, it’s time to start thinking about SU elections!

We have 16 positions up for grabs, including two paid President roles.

Although we’ve got a little over a month until voting takes place, students who may be interested in running for one of our roles should start getting familiar with the key dates.

Nominations for all 16 positions, open next Monday, 2nd February, at 9am. The link to nominate yourself can be found at the bottom of this email.

You have until the 6th of March to submit your nomination.

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, you can find full details about all the roles on our website. Elections 2026 @ Norwich University of the Arts

‘This is 100% not a workshop’ -Housing & Housemate Edition - 

If you are struggling to figure out where to live next year, or are worried about contracts, dodgy landlords, bills, or the new housing laws, don’t worry you’re not the only one.

Join Daniel for an interactive, game filled session designed to help you feel confident, clued up, and ready to take on renting (without the boring lecture vibes)!

Sign up now for a session full of prizes, myth-busting, and real talk from housing charity Shelter!
