NUS (National Union of Students) is a voluntary

membership organisation which makes a real difference to

the lives of students and its member students' unions.
 

We are a confederation of local student representative

organisations in colleges and universities throughout the

United Kingdom and Northern Ireland which have chosen to

affiliate and which pay a membership fee.
Our core values which we believe in are...
 

Equality
We believe there should be equality of opportunity for

everyone to participate fully in a society that

celebrates diversity.
 

Democracy
Our policies and priorities must be student-led and

students’ union-focused through building open,

transparent and accessible democratic structures.
 

Collectivism
Students and students’ unions are more effective when

they organise together locally, nationally and

internationally: unity is our strength.
