Students’ Union. The University has committed funding from its Access Agreement for a permanent Widening Access Co- ordinator based in the Students’ Union. Additional non-staff funding has enabled the post to develop student- led widening access and student success projects. The University is one of a few institutions to have taken such a coordinated approach and has shared this good practice with other institutions and Students’ Unions. This support of student-led initiatives has allowed for:  Access All Areas is an increasingly popular volunteering arm of the Students’ Union with over 1000 hours of student volunteering provided in 2015/16;  The embedding of permanent strategic and collaborative links between the Students’ Union and the University e.g. with Student Action; societies; elected student executive team and the Volunteering and Community Engagement team;  Innovative widening participation outreach projects in primary, secondary and sixth form colleges in addition to projects in local libraries, community settings and for targeted groups including disabled students;  Students to address issues surrounding student success and retention through the planning and delivery of projects which include: annually hosting the Consider Postgrad event aiming to widen participation in postgraduate education and a new LGBTQ+ Peer Support project to aid retention of LGBTQ+ students;  Current students developing the skills to plan, design, recruit volunteers, deliver and evaluate the impact of their projects through internal and external training sessions;  Students to become progressive future leaders and experts in inclusive education, access and widening participation which in 2017 included the delivery of the first Access All Areas conference. Building on the aim to encourage more HEIs to work in partnership with their Students’ Union to develop and deliver student-led widening participation outreach programmes, Access All Areas delivered a successful national conference in Manchester in March 2017 for 60 delegates, from 21 Student Unions and 16 different universities. 35 speakers and facilitators supported the event including the President of the NUS and the President of NUS Scotland. The future priorities of the Students’ Union are to continue to increase cross-project support within Access All Areas and build the reputation of Access All Areas within local schools and colleges.

Students’ Union. In preparing all of our Access Agreements we discuss our approach with Students’ Union. In addition, the 2015-16 Access Agreement has been subject to debate and agreement at our Board of Governors, of which the SU is a full, engaged and valued participant. The Students’ Union also plays an important role in supporting students and working in conjunction with the University’s other services to assist students in maximising their experience during their time at the University. There is a regular Student Forum where members of the SU Executive meet with the members of the University’s Executive Group and Directors of Service to ensure that the University is addressing the needs and concerns of students. Equality and Diversity We are satisfied that by subjecting this Agreement to an impact assessment via the Equality Impact Assessment (EQIA) toolkit, we have executed our responsibilities under the Equality Act 2010 to ensure that the activities and approach adopted and outlined address our aim of increasing and addressing the needs of a diverse student body. Moreover, our approach to both the activities and the monitoring and evaluation outlined in this document, as well as the supporting annexes, is governed by the principle laid out in our corporate Equality and Diversity Policy, namely that: “The University supports the spirit as well as the letter of equality law and thus adopts a positive approach rather than simply a compliant one”. Our commitment to this agenda can be seen through the specific activities that are outlined on p.9 of this agreement and in the targets, which we outline in Annex B, that directly correlate to our institutional Corporate Strategy – Twenty-Twenty Vision.
