You made it, welcome to Durham 🎉
To everyone moving in this weekend, we hope you have the best start to your Durham journey!

We’re your Students’ Union: here to cheer you on, solve problems, and help make your student life the best it can be.

You’ll find us on A & B level of Dunelm House (the big concrete building by the river). People tend to love it or loathe it, but either way, pop in, say hi, and meet your Officer and staff team.

We’ll see you soon!

A big thank you to everyone who joined us for the official Pantry launch yesterday afternoon. 🎊

We are so excited to see both the Kingsgate refurbished space back in action and also our new amazing Pantry stocked and ready for students.

At the launch event we heard from both Alex, our Community Officer, and Vice-Chancellor Karen O’Brien, who detailed the importance of The Pantry in supporting students with the cost of living at Durham University.

None of this would have been possible without the work from our previous Officers Abi and Fran, the SU staff team, Pantry Staff or of course our current Officer team. 💜 A massive congratulations on the launch, and we hope this is a resource students can turn to when they need a helping hand.

To find out more about The Pantry, visit the Durham SU website.

The Belonging Fund is back for 2026/27! 💜

Got an idea that could help students find their people and feel at home at Durham? We want to hear it!
Last year, the full £85,000 fund went towards brilliant student-led projects, from student conferences and club nights to art workshops and even a trip to America to launch a rocket.

Now it’s your turn to bring your ideas to life. You can apply for up to £5,000, or £10,000 for a bigger project, to help make Durham a place where everyone feels they belong.

📅 Applications open from 12 to 30 October.

Whatever your idea, big or small, we want to hear it. Apply before the deadline and help shape belonging at Durham!

Find out more by clicking the link in our bio!

Sexual Misconduct and Violence (SMV) has no place in Durham.

If you’ve been affected - your voice matters, you deserve to be heard, and you will be supported.

We’re working with @durham.su to raise awareness of sexual misconduct and violence (SMV) and to embed a culture of respect and safety across our community.

Visit durham.ac.uk/sexualviolence (link in bio) to access support or explore your reporting options.
