Hi all! Just a friendly reminder that tomorrow is local elections. If you're registered to vote, and haven't sent a postal vote in yet, you'll need to go to the Methodist Church on the roundabout at the end of King Street (i.e. sandwiched between Christ's Pieces, Jesus College and Midsummer Common). It's open from 7am to 10pm. More information, including the candidates, are here: https://wheredoivote.co.uk/address/200004215904/. It's important that everyone who can goes to vote, as the Cambridge City Council manages a lot of things important to student life.

Collections for Ukraine

We are partnering with MCR and Selwyn to collect necessary goods and send them to various collection sites around the UK.

Collections will be divided and sent to sites in Cambridge (going to Polish borders), and a site in London (going to Ukraine).

There are two collection box in the JCR room for this. We especially invite you to contribute by way of non-perishable food (including baby food), medicine, sanitation products, clothing, blankets, flashlights, sleeping bags, batteries, powerbanks and toys.

Hi guys,
If anyone has any flags flying out of their windows (rooms/communal areas) can you move them inside windows as soon as possible. This is to ensure that we're following the new flag policy (can be found on sidnet).
You're more than welcome to fly them inside the windows as long as they are not prohibited flags.
We are sorry about this but we had to make this compromise in order for College to fly the trans flag. Thank you.
SSCSU love xx
