The Buddy Scheme has gotten off to a great start this year! 373 students have signed up and been matched with our lovely student volunteers, of which we’ve had an incredible 141 sign up. There’s still time though, if you want to volunteer with us, please follow the link at the top of the page, and similarly if you feel like you would like the friendship of a Buddy volunteer, you’re always still welcome to sign up too.

But this blog post is all about upcoming events so without further ado here are the upcoming events for the rest of 2023! Click the titles for links to their pages on the Sussex Students’ Union website for more information, or to pick up a ticket (some are unticketed,  some are free tickets, and some have small costs!)
