The Students’ Union is run by students for students – that means we’re completely dedicated to representing students at Staffs and helping provide what they want from their student experience. That covers everything from advice and support, great venues and events to representation, sports clubs, activities and even a dedicated student media service.
We’re constantly striving to ensure the best possible experience for all students at Staffs and free membership of the Students’ Union is automatic on enrolling at Staffordshire University. That means our students get to have their say in what we do and how we do it.
Staffordshire University Students’ Union is a democratic organisation, working entirely for the benefit of students.

These include both competitive and recreational sports groups, special interest groups, academic societies and some that we are unable to categorise!

Staffordshire University Ladies Hockey are sponsored by VERVE, a union venue over on the leek road side of the stoke campus and by The Graduate, a pub located between the two side of stoke campus. We meet every Wednesdays after games for FREE food at The Graduate, if we have played at home, accompanied by the opposing team.

Each year we organise a social tour, over the last few years the club has visited Latvia, Barcelona, Denmark and last year Amsterdam. There are also two possible playing tours which take place at Milton Keynes and Bournemouth depending on numbers and if we can submit a team. The 08/09 season saw us achieve the Runners-Up position for Bournemouth Hockey Tour.
