Durham has a monopoly on first year housing, therefore have power in controlling how much landlords charge everyone. From the start of DWCSA, we have been demanding a better deal for those living in college yet once again Durham excludes w/c students.
The cost of a standard catered room will be over £8000 for the first time under changes for the 2022/2023 academic year. While, in previous years, the University sent an email to all students about such increases, no such communications have been issued this year.

Congratulations to all candidates who won in tonight’s SU elections. Well done to all for running amazing campaigns. You guys have definitely been one of the most impressive set of SU candidates. We can’t wait to work with all the new Officers & new President Joe McGarry. 🎉🎉

Happy LGBT History Month! (We’re cutting it fine, we know 😟) We decided to celebrate LGBT History by researching into our own LGBT heroes, particularly those from a w/c background. This has been truly inspiring! Please feel free to share your own ☺️. We’d love to see them!

Feel free to look at our thread and read our reasoning! While we do encourage you to consider our endorsements, it is in no way telling you who to vote for - just who we think is best! It is down to you overall 😌
