Extraordinary General Meeting 2025
What Is It All About?
Why we’re holding an EGM
This EGM is for students to discuss and vote on a major proposal to improve Union democracy: introducing Student Council Sub-Councils to replace the current Zone system. The aim is to boost participation, fix quoracy issues and make decision-making more representative.
How it works on the day
The meeting needs 50 students to start. If a quorum isn’t reached within 30 minutes, it’s adjourned to the same time the following week. If the quorum still isn’t met, it goes ahead with those present. The meeting is chaired by an individual elected in the meeting.

Why Come Along
1
Get stuck in early
Getting involved early in student democracy is a great way to throw yourself into university and SU life. It helps you understand how things work and gives you a voice from the start.
2
Easier for everyone
The proposed changes make it easier for more students to take part. They remove barriers so anyone can get involved, not just the usual few.
3
More voices, bigger impact
More voices means a strong SU, which is ran by students for students. By getting involved you allow us to fulfill our objectives as a Charity
4
Meet people who care
It’s also a chance to meet others who care about making change. You’ll build connections with people who want to leave the university better than they found it.
