Show Notes

A big part of University life is about getting drunk and skipping a load of lectures, right? Well, we don't think so. And neither do sober student societies across the UK who, alongside our student-focused initiative, #BeRebelAF, support and empower students who want to take control of their alcohol intake. Who said sober was boring? With #BeRebelAF, you can take advantage of all the fun of Freshers Week and beyond, just without the hangover!

If you're heading off to Uni with no intention of drinking then you're not alone! With one in four students choosing not to drink at all, sober societies allow students to make new sober friends right from the very first week of Uni. In this podcast, we speak to three student societies from the University of York, the University of Lancaster, and the Queen Mary University of London, and learn how they cater for sober and sober curious students.

Welcoming our three Sober Student Societies

With plenty of experience in student activities, in-house Club Soda student Lauren takes the lead on this podcast. Lauren speaks to the founders of three sober student societies from across the UK. Amy, founder and chair of York Sober Society, Ophelia, the president of Lancaster Uni's sober society, and Leilani, the new president of the sober society at QMUL all discuss how they've created alcohol-free zones for those who choose not to drink to fit right in.
