Getting involved in Student Activities is a fantastic way to make friends, develop new skills and experience and really feel part of the student community here at Salford.

It’s also a great way to show employers when you graduate that your skills stretch beyond academic achievements.

There are a wide range of Student Activities with something to suit everyone, and remember you can get involved at any time of the year:

• Student Activity Groups - a wide range of sports and activity groups
  
• Give Sport A Go - a chance to learn and play up to five sports for FREE
• Give It A Go  - pay as you go activities, trips and short classes
• Student Media - our newspaper and radio station
  
  Look out for the Student Activities Roadshow across campus during the week commencing 31 January!

You can get involved in up to five sports and it's all completely free.  Take part as much or as little as you like and you'll be supported all the way by our professional coaches.  What have you got to lose?!

Give It A Go fortnight is when the Union puts on all manner of activities, trips and short classes for you to try out.

In the past we've held everything from yoga to rockclimbing, with trips all over the north west to places like the Lake District, Blackpool and Chester Zoo.

Give It A Go will take place in early 2012.
