The LCCSU Officers are elected to represent students and want to work with them to ensure the college experience is the best it can be. Students can get involved by completing surveys, nominating themselves to be a SU Course Rep, joining a student committee or ambassador programme or volunteering with the SU.
Student Officers work with senior leaders to make positive change for learners but also organise a range of events and trips to improve the student experience.
Leeds City College Students’ Union also has a range of societies and activities that students can engage with throughout the year as well as volunteering and leadership opportunities.
Our societies include:
