Hi! We’re King’s College London Students’ Union (KCLSU). Together with our members we are a union of students where individuals connect, have fun, build communities, share experiences, and make change.

We’re here to make sure that every King’s student has the best student experience possible. We’re run by students, for students. Our decisions, policies and what we do are decided by our 25,000 student members (that’s you!). You elect the Student Officers, Student Councillors and Student Reps you want representing you. As a democratic charity and membership organisation students lead us at every level.

As well as empowering our students to share and use their voice, there’s loads of other ways you can get involved with your Students’ Union including: Impartial and confidential support from our Advice Service Joining one or more of the 300+ student-led activity groups, societies, or sports clubs Visiting a KCLSU Student Centre, available on every campus Discovering the Capital with our Unlocking London events Socialising in our two Students’ Union bars Making a difference through volunteering and fundraising Shaping your experience through Student Reps, Student Council and Student Officers Working for us as part of our Student Staff Team

College invest £4 million in campus WiFi

The reliability of WiFi on campus is something students regularly told us they wanted to see the College improve. Student Officers worked to get

student views heard, helping to inform the College’s decision to approve a £4million investment in campus WiFi.

College scraps re-sit feesYour Student Officers, powered by students using their voice have

successfully lobbied the College to remove all fees related to re-sitting any exams or assessments from August 2014 onwards. This sees an end to

you having to pay £75 to retake an exam, or paying up to £200 if you’re a Dentistry or Medicine student. We believe failing an exam or assessment is

stressful enough, without the additional penalty of a re-sit fee.

International and Postgraduate fees regulation

Until now, fees for International, part-time Post Graduate Taught and Post Graduate Research students haven’t been regulated. We wanted to see that

change. After lobbying from the Student Officers, the College agreed that, between years of study, these fees won’t rise above inflation.

Student RepsThere are over 600 Student Reps working hard to make a positive impact for students at King’s. Students in each Programme or Department elect Student Reps to represent their year group on School Forums and Student-Staff Liaison Committees. Go to kclsu.org/studentreps to find yours.

Student CouncillorsThere are 45 members of the Student Council. They’re responsible for deciding the policy and campaigns KCLSU takes on, and representing the student voice at every level of KCLSU, the College and the national student movement. Find out who your Student Councillors are at kclsu.org/studentcouncil.

How to get involvedShape your time at King’s by standing to be a Student Officer, Rep or Councillor. If you’re not interested in standing yourself, get yourself represented by voting for who’ll be your change makers during elections.

CampaignsStudents at King’s are passionate about loads of issues from defending student rights to campaigning for a fairer society. Getting involved in a campaign is a great way to create positive change on the things you really care about. Here’s some of our current and past campaigns:

W: kclsu.org/representingyouE: representation@kclsu.org

Students in each programme or

department elected a total of over 600 Student

Reps last year

Student Reps participated in School

Forums and Student-Staff Liaison Committees to address student issues

Student Reps helped collect over 1,700 rants in 2014 Rant Week, the

most yet! This helped the successful campaign for KCLSU and KCL staff

to be paid the London Living Wage

Highlights

Living Wage Campaign Students successfully campaigned alongside cleaners and trade unions to ensure that all staff at King’s, including those employed by subcontractors receive a London living wage. Save Our Staff Students across the College campaigned to stop 120 academic redundancies in the Health Schools this Summer. The concern being that these cuts would have a massive impact on teaching quality, research and staff morale. By mobilising a campaign group and combining forces with the Universities and College Union, the College reviewed their plans and reduced the number of ‘at risk’ staff by almost half. Longer library opening hours In 2013 over 700 students took action to call on the College to increase library opening hours. This included having the 24-hour access to libraries during exam periods extended to include Medical students’ exam times. The result saw library opening times increased to when students need them most.

Student activity

groups and societies

KCLSU Guide 2014/15

Page: 11

KCLSU supports over over 270 student activity groups and societies. These groups are run independently by students and are supported by KCLSU. There are loads to choose from, including groups about business, campaigning, common interest, faith, culture and much more. We’ve also got dedicated activity groups for what you’re studying, for example medical students can take advantage of the GKT Medical Students’ Association (GKT MSA), General Practice Society, Paediatrics Society and more. Take a look at the ‘academic’ or ‘medical’ sections of the Student activity group list in Appendix 1.

Joining an activity group or society is one of the best ways to get involved with student life at University. With such a variety of groups to choose from, there’s something for everyone. If you can’t find one for you, you can always apply to start your own group.

You can join student groups throughout the year online or at KCLSU Student Centres. Some are free and others have a small membership fee to pay for events and activities the group put on for their members.

Find the latest list of student activity groups and societies at kclsu.org/joiningagroup

One World and LiberationAt KCLSU we’re proud of the diversity of the King’s community. Throughout the year student activity groups and societies put on a variety of events in support of One World and Liberation celebrations, from Culture Kitchens, Diwali shows and Henna workshops to photography exhibitions, seminars and film screenings.

KCLSU supports over 20 student volunteering and fundraising groups aiming to make a difference in the community or raise money for a good cause. Last year, student groups raised over £130,000 for charity!

There’s loads of ways to get involved with volunteering and fundraising at KCLSU. From microvolunteering to short term and long term opportunities there’s loads to get involved with, whether you’ve got loads of time to spare or only a few hours.

Take a look at kclsu.org/volunteering to find out what opportunities we’ve got at the moment.

Can’t find a project that you want to work on? We can help you set up your own volunteering or fundraising initiative.

KCLSU Volunteer, Paige says “I’ve developed loads of skills, including communications skills and I think it’s made me a better person overall! It’s really benefited me, seeing the outcomes of projects, and socially, I’ve met so many people working in different departments and teams!

Going into a career, I can take the skills I gained here which will be so beneficial!”

Widening ParticipationYour background shouldn’t stop you from applying to university. We want our campuses to be inclusive and diverse. Reaching out to under-represented groups and communities is a really important part of making sure everyone feels equally able to attend university.

Widening Participation is all about spreading the word and encouraging young people into higher education. It targets under-represented groups or communities but also includes other projects that promote university, or King’s specifically.

Back To School WeekIn October 2013, we held Back To School Week. People went back to their old schools and volunteered for a day to inspire young students to pursue higher education. A whopping 213 students and staff at KCLSU pledged to go ‘back to school’, reflecting how passionate you are about giving back. We’ll be holding Back To School again in 2014, so keep an eye on our website for how you can get involved.Find out more:
