Welcome to the first newsletter of the year!
It’s been an eventful few months since I took on the reigns of Student Activities Officer, with plenty to report! I’ve loved every minute of it so far, so thanks to all those peeps who have helped me to settle in, I’m very much looking forward to the rest of the year! We’re hoping to bring out newsletters on a fairly regular basis, updating everyone on what’s happening in the section and helping to publicise anything you guys do!

| Membership numbers are looking healthier then ever! We are already approximately 500 up on membership from last year, recently breaking the 2000 mark. It’s great news for the societies and great news for the section! So far BALADS are in the lead with 135 members, with Hiking also breaking the 100 mark. A big shout out to Rec Running, who have only been official for approx 2 weeks but already have 75 members! |

| With the appointment of the new enthusiastic Events Coordinator Catherine, comes our first Societies event, The Societies Showcase taking place in room 1 on the 1st of December. A variety show made up of acts exclusively from LSU societies, hopefully attracting a diverse audience of society members, and non-society members so we can show campus exactly what we can do! I don’t think we’re going to struggle selling all the tickets! Info on how you can get tickets etc will follow shortly. |

This brings up the number of societies to 52! |
