How to Book Third Space

To book Third Space you need to do the following steps:

1. Make sure your event is suitable for Third Space.
2. Fill out an Event Form.
3. If your event is approved by the Student Groups Team, you will be sent a 3rd Space Booking Form which you will need to complete and send to thirdspace@upsu.net.
4. As 3rd Space is not owned by the Union, approval is needed by other departments. We will inform you if your request has been approved.
5. If for any reason it is denied, it likely due to the date requested. The Student Groups Team and the requesting society will work together to find another suitable date.

Remember, the Union building is in fact owned by the university and this includes Third Space. As a result, this strict timescale needs to be abided by.
