The Students' Union is a registered charity representing the interests of over 3,500 students of HAU and running a variety of services and commercial outlets. The Board of Trustees acts on behalf of the Students’ Union with the ultimate responsibility for the strategic direction and financial well-being of the organisation. The Board of Trustees contains two elected officer trustees and two student trustees, whose role is to ensure that all decisions are made with the best interests of students at heart and that HASU is serving its members to the best of its ability. The Board also has up to four external independent trustees; these are voluntary positions filled by people who have knowledge and experience in one or some of the following areas: finance, human resources, strategic development, fundraising & campaigning, business management and not for profit organisations.
