Got Solidarity

Got Solidarity aims to empower students to combat discrimination within our community. We aim to support our student groups to be as inclusive as possible.

Got Solidarity?

Got Solidarity is a student-led initiative which aims to empower students to combat discrimination and to create more inclusive spaces within our community. It is part of StAnd Together, a partnership initiative between Student Services and the Students' Association that focuses on student wellbeing and mutual support. Got Solidarity listens to the voice of students, hosts bystander intervetions workshops and raises awareness through fundraising for charities that aim to create an inclusive society.

Bystander Intervetion

Learning about bystander intervention empowers students to combat discrimination. We deliver workshops to different societies and groups so they can feel more confident intervening when witnessing discrimination.

Through delivering Bystander Intervention we contribute to creating an environment where hate crime and discrimination are not tolerated in our community.

Disclosing harassment, hate, or abuse at University 

Report + Support

You can  use the University’s Report and Support tool to disclose an incident, either anonymously or with contact details. The website has further information on definitions of abuse, harassment and discrimination, as well as links to external and internal support services. When you disclose an incident, you will be asked which department you would like to deal with your report – there is also a ‘don’t know’ option, and any report you make will be reviewed by Student Services and sent to the relevant department to respond to. The target response time for an initial disclosure is three working days. Following a disclosure with contact details, you will be invited to an initial meeting with Student Conduct to discuss the reporting process and whether you would like to go forward with a formal report. The target response time for this step is three working days. No processes will be initiated without your permission unless there is an immediate risk of harm to yourself or another person.
