Societies cannot access their finances until their 3 core committee members have purchased memberships.
If you are a member of a club and you are looking to make a purchase/claim, please email societies.union@stir.ac.uk, copying in your President and Treasurer, with as much information as possible e.g. web links, the reason for purchase, etc. We will check your society's account balance and then make the purchase on your behalf using the Union's credit card.
We discourage making any purchases or bookings yourself and without consulting the Union first. However, if you do have any small claims to make, email with your receipt and the account details that you would like the money refunded to, and she will arrange this with our Finance department. It is best to include your card no. and expiry date (rather than account details) to speed up the reimbursement process.
IMPORTANT: Societies cannot access their finances until their 3 core committee members have purchased memberships.
Please note that all university-owned spaces are at the discretion of the uni team. While the Union will do what we can to help, we cannot guarantee a space. Read below to understand your next steps. You will need risk assessments for any unusual activities taking place in these spaces.
