Your Students' Union are delighted to be awarded 'good standard' for Green Impact Students' Union 2022/23 (GISU)

Following our submission in April, an audit from Students Organising for Sustainability UK (SOS UK) recognised us for our improvements to sustainability. An auditor from SOS UK said: 

 “BCUSU did a great job on their first GISU submission and have made really positive steps in starting to thread sustainability across all areas of their organisation, for example by incorporating it into all their staff job descriptions, having a sustainability award for societies and building on their current environmental committee system. There is a clear commitment and passion for continuing to make many more changes next year and growing their work on campaigns around public transport and period poverty!”

Despite the award, we will continue to drive sustainability forward and tackle environmental issues for the university community.
