Dudley Students’ Union (DSU) is an independent organisation, distinct from Dudley College, with its own budget, strategy, and policies. Our independence is essential, allowing us to represent your views to the college without compromise. We also provide impartial advice and support on a range of teaching and learning issues.

At DSU, students are at the heart of everything we do. We are proudly student-led and student-focused, working to represent you. As an exempt charity, we receive most of our funding through a grant from Dudley College. We also generate additional income from the sale of Totum cards and external funding bids. Every penny we receive is invested back into enhancing your experience—whether through subsidising trips, hosting events, supporting student clubs and societies, campaigning or helping you engage with our democratic structures.
