## Intro
As of the most recent restructure, NUS is made up of two main organisations
- [[NUS UK]] is the lobbying arm of the organisation. Lobby government, campaign on student issues.
- [[NUS Charity]] supports SUs. Helped with incorporation, trading support, recruitment, crisis support.
They share a board and have (broadly) the same membership- SUs across the UK. They are a collectivist, civic organisation.
SUs provide the funding for the two groups through their [[NUS Contribution]]. NUS is therefore a confederation of SUs.
## Leadership
- policies decided at National conferences
- Leadership elected by delegates to national conference. 2 year terms.
- National president
- Higher education
- Further education
- Equality and Liberation
Leadership is held to account by the Exec Committee.
Much of this follows long-standing themes established throughout [[The History of Students' Unions and NUS]] in this country.
