Clubs
LUSA supports the development of clubs on campus. Clubs are a great way to meet new people and have fun! To find out more about clubs on campus please come to the Clubs and Market Day on the first Wednesday of each semester, check out the A-Z list below or call in to LUSA.
Start a Club
Starting a club of your own is easy and a great way to build contacts with like minded people. Currently on campus we have a range of clubs but if nothing takes your fancy, or you have a really cool idea for a club, why not create your own? It’s easy!
You can pick up a copy of the 2013 Clubs Workbook , Grant Application and Money Request Form from LUSA or download here, this outlines and explains the affiliation process, dont worry we will help at each step along the way.
