Tickets are £30pp which include a 3 course meal as well as a DJ all night, and as always plus ones are more than welcome, old spokes you’re also welcome if you’re around!
Tickets can be bought from this link https://www.demontfortsu.com/events/6833/2781/ but are only available until the 12th of November so you need to be quick!!

Hi everyone,

Welcome back, or to DMU if you are new this year. We just wanted to let you know about the things we have going on this week.

We're holding taster sessions this week for both circuits and spin classes. Circuits will be this monday (30th of september) at the QE2 building from 8pm-9:30pm, and spin will be on thursday (3rd of october) also at QE2 from 8pm-9:30pm. Make sure you bring water and your DMU student card, and we will see you there.

On Wednesday we're holding our first proper social back, the theme for this week is s**t shirts (there will be an event put up will all the information). The night will be started at Fat Cat's at 8:30pm and we'll be selling tickets for SU throughout the night, make sure you bring your DMU student card out as well as your normal id and we can't wait to see what s**t shirts you guys pull out.

Make sure you're following us on instagram for updates, message us if you have any questions and we'll see you all throughout the week,

What a session! Thank you all for joining us, hope you all sweated your takeaways out 😉 S&C at Watershed 6:45am tomorrow and as always social theme ‘Something beginning with the first letter of your name’. Be there please! More info on our Facebook group, link in bio. 🚴🏼‍♂️💪🏻🍻

After recent incidents of past weeks, I think it's best you know what to do if you ever find your self in a similar situation and how to best avoid those sorts of situations?

To avoid them, please don't walk in poorly lit areas because they are more likely to be there than in those that are well lit. Try and avoid showing off your phone your wallets and purses because it can make you a target. Carry as little cash as possible and as few highly valuable items.

If you need to get back home stick to the campus for as long as possible. Try and walk home in groups. If that isn't possible try and get a Taxi or an Uber the cost of one of those is minimal compared to being attacked. If you can walk in a pair to someones house/flat and then don't feel safe going back to your own ask to stay the night.

In the event of an attack, it is important you do not do anything rash or uncalled for. This may sound like a bad idea but just hand your stuff over, at the end of the day your personal safety is the priority. Personal belongings can be replaced you cannot.

If you do happen to be attacked and threatened I urge you to either contact DMU Security by phone: 01162577642 or by Email: [email protected] I would also urge you to to contact the police as soon as possible. If don't report these things there is nothing that can be done by the police or the university themselves.

DMU Security: 01162577642
PLEASE ADD IT TO YOUR PHONES!

If there is anything you'd like to talk about further do not hesitate to contact me or the rest of the committee!
