Objectives

UCLan Students’ Union exists to make life better for students and we will always put students at the heart of the Union.

Our Mission - ‘To make student life the best it can be’.

Our Vision - ‘That every student is able to be inspired, succeed and achieve their goals’.

Our values are about what we believe, and they shape how we act. They guide us as we empower students to take the opportunities that the University of Central Lancashire offers; be inspired, succeed and achieve their goals.

Put simply: We are independent, and we always support students. It’s a strength that we are an open, democratic organisation led by students

We want all students to play their part in the Union as we create a safe, inclusive Union and campus

We all work together

 

Activities

2020 was a chance for us to reset as a Students’ Union and focus on the things that really matter to us as an organisation.

We completed a large-scale research at the beginning of 2020; including a survey completed by over 1,000 students, followed by a range of focus groups with over 60 students to dig deeper into their thoughts about the Students’ Union.

The results were reviewed and refined by our Trustee Board to help shape areas for us to focus on.

From our findings, we created a new strategy which outlines our priorities over the next three years – ‘making life better for students, piece by piece’. The strategy focuses on three key areas:

  • Student Voice
  • Student Life
  • Student Community

Our research shows that each of these areas are fundamental to ensure students have a successful and enjoyable experience whilst at University.
