Housing Guide

Due to the cost-of-living crisis, it is becoming even more difficult to find suitable housing. Because of the convoluted nature of the housing situation, it is often the case that students are unaware what rights are afforded to them as tenants. 

This Housing Guide was therefore created by Jess Reid (VP Communities 22/23) and Dante Lopez (Housing Officer 22/23) to help relieve some of the pressures students are facing and equip them with additional knowledge and resources. 

Please view the Housing Guide below.

Housing Committee

The Housing Committee was established to investigate the housing emergency and support the delivery of a report to provide recommendations to our University going forward.

The committee consists of the Housing Officer, 4 elected 'lay' (ordinary) student members, and the VP Communities. The meetings are chaired by the Housing Officer.

This work will also involve organising Housing Forum meetings to allow students to raise concerns regarding both university and private accommodation. 

Housing Forum

During the 22/23 academic year, the University of Stirling Students’ Union piloted a Housing Forum to bring together the student voices and make their experiences more representative and democratic.

Details on the continuation of the forum are TBA. 

If you have any questions, please contact the VP Communities at communities.union@stir.ac.uk.
