and unique place to learn and socialise.

We are primarily here to represent you and
take action on your behalf. However, we also
provide you with the resources and opportunities
that will enable you to make the most of your
experience and time at Keele. KeeleSU has all you
could possibly need, such as support, activities,
volunteering, societies and sports clubs – with
everything that you would expect, to the more
surprising things like quidditch and belly dancing!
We’re sure to have something for you, and we
are more than happy to assist you in setting up
something new. Want somewhere to relax and
chat to your friends? Feel free to use our alcoholfree ground floor special space. Want a great
