It is essential that you are a member of the National Union of Students if you are going on tour, it is also recommended that you become a member even if you are not going.
Why? The NUS card provides you with a level of insurance while participating in sporting events organized by the Union.
Two types of NUS card are available:
1. The NUS Democracy Card – Free, gives you membership and some discounts.
2. The NUS Extra Card – Costs £10, gives you membership and many discounts.
You DO NOT have to buy the NUS Extra Card, either card will meet the above requirement. Also by becoming a member of the NUS you can subscribe to a number of mailing lists and find out about what they are doing for you as a student and interesting events and offers.

Once registered on-line you can collect your card from the Reception desk between the following times: http://www.upsu.net/registration/help/issueing/
If you do not already have your NUS card you MUST register and collect it as soon as possible, the Union will stop issuing cards very soon. – So go this week.
