Societies

Build friendships and make memories!

Societies are like mini communities that bring together students with similar interests. Being part of a society is a great way to try something new, make friends for life and open yourself up to many different opportunities. Research also shows that students that engage with a society achieve a better degree outcome than students who don't. Run by committees of students, you can even take on a student leader position, making your society everything you want it to be while enhancing your employability. However you get involved, you’ll love being part of the society bubble.

Need a little help with your membership fees? Our Hardship Fund could provide support if you’re finding the cost a bit difficult. Email societies@hertssu.com to find out more.
