On Friday 22 May, Roehampton Students’ Union and Sport Roehampton collaborated to present the SU & Sports Awards 2026.

It was our chance to recognise and celebrate the students who shape life at Roehampton. Whether it’s leading a society, representing your school, supporting a sports club or other volunteering opportunities, these awards highlight the people who go above and beyond to make student life better for others.

We had a fantastic evening celebrating all of your achievements, and if you missed it, we've broken it all down below.
