University of Gloucestershire Students' Union

Our culture and values

UoGSU is a value-driven organisation. The work we do has the power to impact the real, lived experiences of our members - and how we do it is incredibly important. To all our members and stakeholders, we promise to be:

Inclusive

• We advocate for equity. Everyone is welcome at UoG, and we've got your back - regardless of your background or identity. 

Democratic

• We empower our members to be decision makers. We’re student-led, with student needs at our very centre, shaping the work we do.

Courageous:

• We recognise that change is often a good thing. We’re willing to make brave decisions and work with our members to do things differently — and we’re always honest about our  limitations.

Sustainable:

• We prioritise decisions that contribute positively to environmental, social and economic sustainability, for the benefit of our members, our stakeholders and the wider community. We acknowledge the interconnectedness between decisions we make and our impact on the world around us.
