Articles of Association
DSU proudly works hard to run as a professional charity for our beneficiaries, students. Our Articles of Association outline how we remain compliant under our lawful duties and how our Trustee Board works, but we also strive to adhere to the NCVO Charity Ethical Principles in our work.
Bye-Laws
This document outlines how we enact student policy, governance related to student groups plus our student council, representation and democratic practices.
Code of Conduct
Every DMU student is automatically a member of DSU and as such we expect a certain level of behavior that is outlined in this document. This is always viewed in line with DMU student code of conduct and regulations.

Student Charter
This Student Charter has been created collaboratively – by De Montfort University (DMU), by De Montfort Students’ Union (DSU), and by DMU students themselves, who will be encouraged to take an active role in its continuing development and success. The Student Charter sets out what we expect from each other, as partners in our scholarly community.
Impact Report (including Audited Accounts)
Every year the students' union is required, by law, to show how we spend the money we receive from the university and how the work we do positively impacts all of our members. We show this through our Impact Report and Audited Accounts.
