Goldsmiths students' union is a democratic and charitable organisation that works independently from goldsmiths, university of london to represent and support students. With full-time officers that help steer the union as representatives and trustees, and numerous part-time representative positions that help direct how the su is organised, we aim to be as democratic and student-led as we can.
