The Student Union building recently won a national award. It’s the perfect area to relax after a long day of lectures with friends, be it in the restaurant or games area, and integrate with the wider Aston community.

Medical events are known to be the best events you will attend. With all your colleagues and Barts family there, you feel an immense sense of community.
