Campaigns and Events

We are passionate about campaigning. here you can find information about past, current and future campaigns.

Here are all the campaigns that Undeb Bangor will be running over the 2019-20 Academic Year. From the fifth to the seventh of November 2019 we will host our Don't Panic Campaign. Our Don't Panic campaign is all about ensuring you receive information and guidance before deciding where to live. We will be appearing at numerous locations across Bangor, to reiterate that there is no need to panic into signing a contract! From the 18th to the 24th of November we will run the first Destresstival. De-Stresstival is a week-long event giving students the opportunity to have some fun and de-stress! It will allow students to take part in exciting activities, alongside workshops that are designed to be relaxing and promote well-being. We also aim to raise awareness of mental health, educate students on plagiarism and to promote the advice and support provision we have here at the Students’ Union. DeStresstival will also run between the 23rd and 29th March 2020. our Sexual Harassment campaign No Grey Area will run from the 2nd of December and the 6th of December 2019, and then again between the 30th of March and 3rd of April 2020. We must be clear - Sexual Harassment is completely unacceptable. That is why we have scheduled a No Grey Area campaign, which will outline what exactly Sexual Harassment is, and where you can find help and support if either yourself, or a friend, has experienced it. One of our ongoing campaigns is P.h.Tea. PhTea is an event that occurs every Thursday between 12pm-2pm at the Students' Union. PhTea gives the opportunity for Postgraduate Researchers to get together and discuss their work, research and just general chit-chat about how they are doing, over some tea, coffee and biscuits. We also run Marks out of Tenancy. Your Students’ Union believes that you should have more information before signing up to a property. Undeb Bangor are collaborating with Marks Out Of Tenancy, a review platform where students can openly share their rental experiences. We also host Landlord Awards on the 1st of April 2020. We want to celebrate the work and effort put in by landlords across the city who provide students with high quality housing. All too often we her about the bad and the ugly when it comes to student housing, we have therefore re-launched this initiative , as part of Undeb Bangor’s Housing Campaign, to recognise the great and the good.
