Please note that some of these activities may be seasonal, or can affected by factors outside of the group’s control.
• For continuing students - The opportunity to stand for a committee position for the next academic year, and vote in committee elections.
• For groups competing in BUCS – to attend trials, training sessions and have the opportunity to be selected for the teams.
