Start A New Society

Start a new Society 

If you are interested in setting up a new society please complete this form and a member of the Student Activities department will get back to you shortly.

 

First Steps

  • Check the group you wish to start doesn't already exist here.
     
  • Check if other students have suggested your idea for a society previously here. This can help you to find more committee members. 
     
  • Gather at least two Committee Members - you must have a President and a Treasurer but we would also recommend having an Administrator. These are the basic roles that every society needs to function but if you wish to add more go ahead and create your own roles. Only current ARU students can be committee members. 
     
  • Create a clear aim for your society. Where do you see it going? What is its purpose?  What are your objectives? 
     
  • Remember Clubs and Societies must abide by the Union’s current Equal Opportunities Policy and are subject to the provisions of the Constitution, Regulations and Policy of ARU Students’ Union.
