CAPTAINS

Alongside us will be a group of approximately 30 Captains who help us run the events throughout the entire week. Captains will be wearing orange t-shirts and are also there to answer your questions about the University and Freshers' Week as well as making your first week here highly enjoyable.

CREW

Now we get to your guides, the Freshers' Week Crew. The Crew are here to be your close contact and help you settle in during Freshers' Week. They are responsible for taking you on tours of the campus and the city as well as taking you to the main events going on right the way through the week. There are around 320 volunteers wearing blue 'Crew' t-shirts who will be working in smaller teams to look after the different residences on campus and will be there to greet you upon your arrival.

SABBS

Throughout the year the Students' Union is run by six Sabbatical Officers (Sabbs). The Sabbs are ordinary students who are elected before Easter each year. During Freshers' Week they will be wearing purple 'Sabb' t-shirts and one of them will always be found on a couch outside the library with a hot cup of tea. They will also be conducting your Students' Union inductions.

BACKSTAGE

The Backstage Technical Services Crew work hard behind the scenes to ensure that the main events run smoothly without any technical hitches. If the technical services takes your fancy then pay them a visit in the Founders Sports Hall during the Arts Day on the Saturday of Freshers' Week to find out more about what they do.

MEDIA

Throughout the week you will probably bump into someone from Student Media. They will be documenting the week in the Freshers’ Week newsletter (“mintyFresh”) or with radio updates on URB and online and on the Union TV screens (courtesy of CTV).
