UCA Students’ Union is proud to host the Union Awards. These awards are our thank you to all the hard-working students and staff across the four campuses who in the academic year of 2017-18, have dedicated their time and effort to making sure that the entire student body benefits as a whole. We would like you to join us in celebration after a long year full of change, activity, representation and campaigning.
