We need you! In these uncertain times, we’d like to launch a campaign to help protect and enhance the community you have all built.
We have seen so many of you running some great activities online for your members and we want you to get involved!
Below there is a list of some ideas on what you and your group could be doing during isolation and how you can still engage with your members.
If your group are running events remotely, tag us @UMAberSU and use the hashtags #TîmAber #TeamAber.
We want to share what you’re up to – this is a great way for other societies to get ideas for what they can do, all alongside sharing some wholesome content.
Why not also let us know about your events in advance by filling out this form?
