Our community

In addition to the University community, which includes our past and current staff and students, the University of Southampton is part of a wider local and regional community that includes our neighbours, local councils, regional stakeholders and the general public.

Ours is a large and complex organisation and on these pages you will find links to help direct you to information about the wide range of areas that we cover, across education, research, business and volunteering.

Many of our services and facilities are open to members of our local community, including membership of our sports facilities, access to arts venues and public events.

We also offer information about being good neighbours, including essential residential information, such as when to put out bins.

We strive to be a good neighbour and to build positive relationships with our community members. However, should you have any problems or wish to make a complaint you can follow our University complaints procedure.
