Exeter Student Volunteers
ESV is the Students' Guild’s largest student group; dedicated to facilitating volunteering within the local community, and making you more employable.
Sports
Sports Park
St Luke's Campus has its own Sports Centre which offers superb fitness and swimming facilities for students and staff on campus. The centre has recently benefited from a £45,000 investment in new gym equipment bringing state-of-the-art technology to the workout of its members. Find more information about the St Luke's Sports Centre on our Sports Park website.
Athletic Union
The Athletic Union (AU) currently boasts 50 active sports clubs, all of which are student-led by an elected Club Captain and their committee. Each club welcomes athletes of all experiences and abilities whether you are Olympic standard or simply want to try out a new sport whilst studying. For more information please see our Student Sport pages.
I think aside from the course itself, I have most enjoyed the variety of opportunities there are for literally anything. I have always been someone who finds it difficult to say no to things, hence my extensive list of both extra and intra-curricular activities. For me, I would say the biggest highlight would be both the opportunities presented to you, and the support you receive from those around you whilst pursuing them.
