Celebrate
Let's celebrate
Year after year, students continue to face challenges, such as tackling online learning, industrial action, and the cost of living crisis. But that doesn’t stop them getting stuck into student life, achieving big things and making difficult times a bit better for their fellow students.
With awards to honour clubs and societies, sportspeople, halls of residence, and staff and students, every spring we celebrate the people and initiatives that make Leeds so brilliant – and we want you to get involved. Nominate your friends, colleagues and mentors, and cheer your peers who are up for awards!
The Partnership Awards
The Partnership Awards celebrate students and staff who have enhanced the Leeds community by embodying the values of The Leeds Partnership. We want to acknowledge the people who make the Leeds learning experience so brilliant.
From Equality and Inclusion, to Feedback and Assessment, the Partnership Awards recognise the people who put their heart into representing, supporting, and empowering everyone in the Leeds community.
Awards ceremony: Tuesday 30 April
The Riley Awards
The Riley Awards celebrate the very best of our clubs and societies. With more than 300 student groups at LUU, there’s so much to recognise and appreciate!
From Best Online Presence to Best Charity Fundraiser, these prestigious awards are presented to the clubs and societies that represent everything that’s great about students at the University of Leeds.
If your club or society is interested in performing during awards ceremony, you can register via contacting t.gibson@leeds.ac.uk. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to perform at this spectacular event!
Awards ceremony: Friday 26 April
The Halls Awards
The Halls Awards are a celebration of the incredible students, Residence Life Assistants (RLAs), and Residence Life Social Committees (RLSCs) that have contributed to their residence community by providing events, opportunities and support to their neighbours.
We celebrate the people that have made a difference to your time in halls, whether that’s the RLSC who put on that great event, the RLA that helped you through a difficult situation, or the flatmate that made your year wonderful!
Awards ceremony: Thursday 2 May
Gryphon Colours Awards
The Gryphon Colours Awards is all about the wonderful Gryphon Sports, Dance, Martial Arts and Outdoor clubs at LUU.
It is a night to recognise and celebrate the incredible efforts of our students, teams, volunteers, coaches and everyone involved in our Leeds Sport clubs. Whether you’ve been awesome on the pitch, or made a difference off it, this is your chance to shine!
Awards ceremony: Wednesday 8 May
Celebrating our Student Volunteers
We know that University of Leeds students like to make a difference, and one of the ways you do this is by volunteering.
Whether this is through a Club & Society, at a local school or charity, your volunteering really does have a positive impact on the lives of others and the surrounding community.
Intercultural Ambassadors Showcase
The Intercultural Ambassadors Showcase celebrates the achievements of student ambassadors who’ve dedicated their time and enthusiasm to developing their intercultural skills and helping others benefit from our diverse university community.
We’ll showcase the experiences of students who trained and volunteered together on the Intercultural Ambassadors Programme this year, and the exciting intercultural projects they ran to inspire and connect students and local people.
We’ll be celebrating our ambassadors and finding out about the impact of their projects on the many people, young and old, who’ve taken part.
