University Of Bristol UnionThe University of Bristol Union is the students' union of Bristol University. It is among the oldest of the UK students' unions and was a founding member of the NUS. Former union presidents have included broadcaster Sue Lawley, St Lucia's foreign minister and ambassador to the United Nations George W. Odlum, and MP Lembit pik. Originally housed in the Victoria Rooms, since the 1960s the union has been located in a concrete edifice of pleasant spaciousness, and astonishing ugliness, in the otherwise attractive suburb of Clifton. In addition to the Anson rooms it features a swimming pool (open to the general public at certain times,) two bars (the 'Epi', and the Mandela Bar) a cafe, student shop, two theatres (the Winston and the Lady Windsor theatre) and numerous specialised rooms, such as dark rooms, a dance studio, a pottery room and music practice rooms. There are long-term plans to relocate the contents of the building to a site nearer to the main university campus. The union is also host to the Anson Rooms, a popular venue for live music in the south-west of England. External links Bristol
