Have you registered with us as a Volunteer yet?
Maybe, you’re thinking volunteering isn’t for
you but this might change your mind…
Think about when you start applying for a job
(ok, so it might not be for a couple of years,
but you could maximise your learning during
this time!) - An employer has shortlisted and
interviewed suitable candidates and now
has to decide between two applicants with
similar qualifications; one who has volunteered
alongside their studies and gained extra skills
and experience and a second applicant who
hasn’t – who would you give the job to?
Would you like to gain extra experience either
relating to your course of study or doing
something completely different? Kati & Emma
are here to help you find the right opportunity
for you; one that fits with your interests,
aspirations and time schedule.
Please register with us online at
www.thestudentsunion.org.uk/volunteering
and we’ll send you more information. We
have opportunities for you to get involved
both within the SU and externally with local
charitable organisations, looking for volunteers.
We also plan project days throughout the year
which will be included in our bulletins and you
can sign up to as many of these as you like.
We will send you a regular bulletin with
opportunities for you to consider getting
involved in; alternatively if you contact us
we can give you some options around your
interests and aspirations.

Our student-led projects are also growing
so if you have a passion for a particular
volunteering project and would like some help
in getting it going please get in touch!
Student Academic Reps If any of you have put yourself forward to
be an Academic Rep or maybe you’re
thinking about it this is also a volunteering
opportunity. Any time you spend attending
meetings, training, gathering class feedback
etc all counts as volunteering because you’re
giving your time for the benefit of others. By
carrying out this role you will also demonstrate
to future employers that you have excellent
communication, organisational and
leadership skills.
Raise & Give (RAG)Are you creative, enjoy organising events or
just want to make a difference?
Even if you’re not and just want to try
something different…join RAG!
RAG raises money for charities through
organising various fun events and fundraisers!
With your help we can make this year’s RAG
bigger and better than ever!
Make a Difference DayIf you would like to make a difference to
someone’s life we’ll be spending Saturday
29th October out in the community with
people with Alzheimers. Details are being
confirmed but if you think you may have some
time then get in touch to express your interest.

Lancashire Volunteering OpportunitySupport someone in your community and
make a new friend!
FANCY doing something interesting and
rewarding with your spare time? Something
enjoyable and challenging to improve your
CV as you start along your career path?
Want to help someone else into the bargain?
Well, befriending could be just what you’re
looking for.
Lancashire County Council’s Volunteer
Service helps to form and support friendships
between volunteers and vulnerable adults.
Our volunteers help people who have grown
isolated through low confidence or limited
social opportunities. You can offer friendship
to people who may feel they have no one to
turn to.
The support of a friendly face and a regular
routine can boost physical and mental health
and volunteers themselves enjoy a ‘feel good’
factor, together with those they befriend.
Supporting a vulnerable or isolated person
can be as simple as a weekly visit for a cup
of tea and a chat, or involve a range of
activities such as going for a walk, shopping,
or perhaps going to see a film or visiting the
local swimming pool.
Volunteers can take advantage of free
training courses and we can provide
references on completion of six months of
active volunteering.
To get involved or learn more about the
Lancashire Volunteer Service, please email
Emma at [email protected]

I would like to take this opportunity to say
hello to all students at University of Cumbria.
My name is Roz Pilling and I have recently
started work for the Students’ Union as the
Information and Advocacy Manager. It is a
great honour for me to have been welcomed
so warmly into the role and I look forward to
further developing the service and continuing
with the excellent work undertaken by my
predecessor, Trish Lee. I have a background
in Social Care having spent the last 10
years since graduating from Lancaster
University working in children’s residential
settings, schools, adult disability and sensory
impairment teams and most recently at the
Royal Lancaster Infirmary medical social
work team.
from the Information and Advocacy Manager About the team…
Mike Taylor, based in Lancaster and Hayley
McCowan, based in Carlisle Fusehill Street are
the Students’ Union Information and Advice
Assistants and they will be able to support
you in accessing the relevant part of the
Union for your interests and needs. If you have
any queries about Students’ Union activities
and services Mike and Hayley will be able to
point you in the right direction. Chloe Merna
is our Student Advisor and she has a wealth
of experience in supporting students with a
variety of academic, health and social needs.
She also has long standing experience of the
University of Cumbria and the Students’ Union
having been a student and an officer here in
the past.
Lorri Millar, Academic Sabbatical and Rachel
Garlick, Student Life Sabbatical are the
student leaders of the department. They
represent you on the development of services
and run campaigns with the aim of improving
the overall experience for you during your
time at University.

About the service…
The advocacy and advice service is free,
confidential and impartial so whatever your
concern you can be sure that you can access
support in complete confidence. If you are
looking for general information and advice
Mike and Hayley will be able to support you
in the first instance. If you wish to make an
appointment to speak to either Chloe or
myself regarding more specific or in depth
concerns we will be able to help you do so
to ensure that we can arrange a confidential
and comfortable environment in which to
discuss your concerns. We are keen to work in
partnership with other services, both internally
and externally, for the benefit of the individual
student. As such, the team will be able to
signpost you to other relevant services which
might be beneficial to you, however, we will
not pass on any personal details to other
services unless you request us to.
Campaigns…
The primary Academic/Student Life Campaign
to look out for in November is running for the
week beginning 21st November. The RARA
(Rules And Regulations Awareness) campaign,
which also ran for a week from 10th October,
has been put in place to proactively inform
you of the University Academic rules and
regulations and any changes that have
been made to them. By being informed the
likelihood of you encountering difficulties
with your course is greatly reduced, so I
would encourage you to actively engage
with this campaign.
I hope you are enjoying the new academic
year and that both your academic and
personal lives are going well, however if you
are experiencing any difficulties please do
not hesitate to get in touch.

ContractsSigning a housing contract is amongst the
first significant legally binding documents a
student will sign. It is a big commitment.
Never sign a contract on the spot - you should
always be given at least 24 hours to read the
contract. It is vital that you remember that
once a contract has been signed that it is
legally binding on all parties, you do not get a
chance to change your mind. The University
of Cumbria Students’ Union runs a contract
checking service which can be accessed
through the Advice Service.
Are you sure you want to live together?If you have signed the same contract as your
house mates and you all agree to take the
property at the same time; you will be jointly
and severally liable with each of your house
mates for any rent arrears and/or damage
to the property. So, if one tenant moves out,
the landlord/agent can pursue the remaining
tenants (as well as the tenant who has left) for
any money due. The majority of students sign
Joint tenancy’s which is why it is so important
to make sure that you are moving in with the
right people.
You must:• Pay your rent as stated in the contract
• Not damage the property, furnishings or fixtures
• Agree any other clauses to be added to/
removed from your contract in writing
Your Landlord must:• Give 24 hours notice before visiting the property
• Keep the property in a good state of repair
• Protect your tenancy deposit in a
government scheme

www.thestudentsunion.org.uk |17
InventoriesAt the start of your tenancy your landlord/
agent should give you an inventory which
lists all the fixtures and fittings in the property,
and the condition that they’re in. It is the only
proof you will have at the end of the tenancy
that you are not to blame for existing damage,
and evidence if there is a dispute over the
return of your deposit.
Check that the inventory lists every item and
whether there is any existing damage (eg.
broken furniture, stains on the carpet etc.) The
inventory should be signed and dated by the
landlord and tenant, who should each keep
a copy. If your landlord doesn’t give you one,
draw up your own and ask your landlord/
agent to sign it and give them a copy. If your
landlord won’t sign it, ask an independent
witness to sign and date it, and send a copy
to the landlord by recorded delivery.
Any damage that occurs to the property
during the tenancy should be promptly
reported in writing (keep a copy) to the
landlord/agent. If you cause any damage,
for example, break a vase etc, and want
to replace it, always ask your landlord and
update the inventory accordingly and keep
receipts.
It’s a good idea to take photos of the
condition of the property when you move in
(include a newspaper showing the date) and
when you leave.

Gas SafeCarbon monoxide is a poisonous gas, don’t
mistake the symptoms for a hangover.
It is a criminal offence for a Landlord to rent
out a property without a gas safety certificate
– have you seen yours?
It may not be top priority for you right now but
knowing these rights could save your life. If the
boiler is old, poorly serviced, fitted incorrectly
or faulty it could put you and your flatmates at
risk. By law, your landlord must be able to show
you their landlord’s gas safety record to ensure
the safety of you and your house mates. The
great news is it won’t cost you a penny and it
could save your life!
Remember to always:Check the ID card of any gas engineer that
comes to do work in your home.
Cooperate with your landlord and let a Gas
Safe registered engineer in when a gas safety
check or servicing has to be done.

www.thestudentsunion.org.uk |19
DepositsSince April 2007, landlords entering into new
tenancy agreements are now required
to place any deposit with a Government
authorised scheme, which will safeguard the
money and offer independent adjudication
in the event of any dispute. Tenants who have
kept their rented property in good condition
can be confident that they will not have all
or part of their deposit withheld unfairly. This
means your landlords (or agent, if undertaking
those duties) must also give you information
about how your deposit is being protected
(normally as a clause within the Tenancy
Agreement and by giving you a leaflet) at the
time of entering the deal.
The landlord must pay your deposit into one of
the three authorised schemes within 14 days of
receiving your deposit. One is custodial (where
the money is held with the company itself)
and two are insurance companies (where the
landlord keeps the money but it is insured by
these companies for pay out if the landlord
goes bankrupt etc).
If, at the end of your tenancy you can’t agree
with your landlord/agent over the amount of
the deposit to be returned, or aren’t satisfied
with the explanation for withholding the
deposit, you can register the dispute using
whichever scheme your deposit has been
protected with.

Mature Student Exec RepresentativeHi, thank you for electing me as the ‘Mature
Student Representative’ across all campuses.
I am just starting the 2nd year of a degree
in Wildlife & Media, but I’m in my 3rd year of
study, having started as a Further Education
student in 2008.
What is the Students Union? When I started
here, I wasn’t really sure, and I only had two
words to go on, ‘Students’ & ‘Union’. I thought
it must be something to do with ‘Unions’, some
kind of left wing pressure group within the
University, and any student who was active in it
was sure to be some kind of anarchist!
Nothing could be further from the truth! The
Students Union is just that, a union of the
students, and is made up of a very positive
and fun loving bunch of people who all
dedicate their time to make the student
experience as fantastic and memorable as
possible for all of us. You can get involved as
much or as little as you like, but we are always
here to listen and help you, no matter what
you want to talk about. We organise events
to keep your time here alive and exciting and
you will also notice that we run campaigns
aimed at improving the things that matter to
all of us. We also do a lot more that you will
learn about.
What is a ‘mature student’? That’s hard to
define really, but it’s anyone over the age of
about 24. You will find that the wide range
of ages at our University gives it a very strong
family and community feeling throughout.
You will see me mainly around the Carlisle and
Penrith campuses, but I will be visiting all sites
over the year. Come up and say hello! You
can’t miss me; they’ve given me a coloured
badge so big that we can shelter under it if it’s
raining!
