RAG
Hi! We are RAG and we are the University of Southampton's leading fundraising society! Our committee and volunteers spend the year fundraising for our 2023-24 core charity the Rose Road Association, as well as a variety of other charities depending on student demand. All fundraising at SUSU comes through us, and we are therefore the major support system for any other societies, clubs, groups, and individuals who want to fundraise too!
We are the leading fundraising society at the University of Southampton!
Our committee and volunteers spend the year fundraising for dozens of charities depending on what the students want us to do! Our 23/24 core charity is The Rose Road Association.
We offer support to individual and group fundraisers and collaborate with a variety of societies to promote and organise events. We run a variety of events throughout the year, from karaoke takeovers to the ever-popular Gunge a Captain and Take Me Out, and the spectacular Fight Night. If you're brave enough, you can even get your kit off for the annual Naked Calendar.
We also offer some fantastic opportunities for Adventures and Challenges, such as the Skydive and the National Three Peaks for Hope for Children, and The Lisbon Music Marathon for Alzheimer's Research UK.
Check out our social media for up-to-date information on everything we're up to!

RAG Year Membership | FREE | 01/08/2023 - 31/07/2024 | As a member of RAG you're always welcome to to our weekly roundups where we plan some amazing events and help fundraise as much money as possible for our core charity Rose Road Association, and many other charities! Throughout the year we have loads of seasonal events going on, our massive Movember campaign, Lost, Gunge and our infamous Fight Night! We meet up with our volunteers every Thursday, to attend talks from charity speakers or to get together and plan events. There's always a cheeky trip to the Stag's for karaoke afterwards! Aside from our awesome social events, we offer fantastic opportunities to challenge yourself, while having fun and raising money for charity. These opportunities include climbing mountains or a skydive in the Summer holidays or getting your kit off for the annual RAG Naked Calendar. We also go out on a few ‘RAG raids’ each term for a wide range of charities, which involve travelling to a city centre, and collecting in the street with a bucket. |
