The Union is a registered charity and its charitable aims are: Promote the interests and welfare of students during their course of study at Bath Spa University. In doing so we represent, support and advise students on a range of subjects. We act as the recognised representative between students and Bath Spa University and other external bodies. We provide social, cultural, sporting and recreational activities and forums for discussion and debate for the personal development of its students. The Students' Union is led by a team of four full time elected sabbatical officers as well as a team of student officers who represent the student body. We provide a variety of membership services across student voice, advice and student opportunities working with students as leaders. We also run commercial services where the profits are invested back into our charitable aims, they are our SU bar, shop and gym. The Union employs a team of career and student staff to deliver the strategy of the Union. Our strategy and reports can be seen here: https://www.bathspasu.co.uk/about/strategyandreports/
