And finally.... Five Top Tips for running a successful society


1. Check your society email account regularly to stay updated. This is main form of communication between you, the Union and the outside world, and is incredibly important to avoid missing information and opportunities.

2. Go to the relevant Impact Training courses and pass on the information to your team.

3. Be organised! Plan your events and activities in plenty of time so you can do whatever you need to do and inform people, preventing unneccessary stress and difficulty.

4. If in doubt, ask! The Societies Officer as well as the staff in the Resources Room and the rest of the Union are here to help you. If you are not sure of anything, especially things involving money, the best thing to do is ask before it's too late.

5. Have fun! Remember that you are doing this as an extra-curricular activity. If you're finding it difficult to balance your time with your academic work, delegate tasks among the exec, ask for help, and speak to someone.

However, do make sure that you get the most out of it you possibly can. Running a society develops many skills that employers love, and it really enhances your time and experience at Warwick.
