clubs-societiesThe range of clubs and societies here indicates the richness of the St Paul's experience – there are more than 100 student-led activities. Some of them tie into specific subjects, some of them provide opportunities to pursue creative talents, some of them reflect our commitment to the wider community – and all of them are fun ways for students in different years to work together.

Virtually all our clubs and societies have been set up as a result of students' own passions and enthusiasms and they only survive because students are prepared to devote time to them and want to share what they know. So whether you feel like playing five-a-side football, experimenting with a wormery or immersing yourself in studio theatre, there'll be something on offer. And if your interest isn't catered for already, we’ll give you all the support you need to make it happen.
