Our Sustainability Committee is a group of students working to make UWE a more environmentally conscious place. You can join the committee at the start of each year!
The Sustainability Committee is an opportunity for students who are passionate about sustainability to innovate and have the power to create positive change throughout UWE and beyond.
Create sustainable change within UWE and the wider community through events and campaigning. The committee can also shape the sustainability practice and credentials at The Students’ Union at UWE, and the wider UWE Bristol community.

Cerys Jones
"Hey! My name is Cerys Jones and I'm studying Environmental Science at UWE. I'm interested in the ways people and nature are connected, even when we don't always realise it. I love the idea of making environmentalism less of an exclusive club for people who can identify every bird type or know the Latin name for every plant, and more about finding things we can all enjoy and get involved in. I'm really excited to be apart of the committee and meet people with different ideas and perspectives."
