Studying at university is a fantastic place to get involved in all different kinds of activity. Trying new activities, joining new societies, learning new languages or playing new sports are just some of the many things that your time at university can involve. With all these opportunities, there is so much that you can learn which will benefit you in future. From developing soft skills, to gaining real life legal experience and showing your charitable spirit, here are three ways you can make a difference in the law itself during university.

After a long and gruelling three years of endless case law, reading and caffeine, my degree is slowly coming to an end, and (although I missed the first year of my ‘university experience’ due to covid-19) part of me believes there’s so much more I could’ve and should’ve done.

The Edward Bramley Law Society is the largest law society at The University of Sheffield and one of the largest in Europe.
