WELFARE AT GUSA Email [email protected] with any questions. THE GUSA BUDDY SYSTEM The GUSA Buddy System aims to encourage people who may not be comfortable exercising themselves, to do so with the help of a Buddy. Each buddy pairing will last for four weeks. If you are not already a member of the University Gym, throughout this four week period you are granted access to the University Sport facilities only when accompanied by your Buddy. Why is the GUSA Buddy System in place? The GUSA Buddy System aims to aid those who are not already exercising for any reason. We pair each student up with a volunteer Buddy with similar availability for a four week period. We hope that during this time you will become more comfortable exercising and will have made a friend out of the experience. Finding your Buddy: If you are a student looking for a volunteer Buddy, applications will open at the end of September.
