Going for Gold Awards
Blazing a trail in social responsibility...
2009 saw USSA recognised with the highly prestigious Best Bar None Overall Gold Winner award; as the fourth consecutive Gold award and the third consecutive Overall winner title was announced USSA's President 09/10, Philip Whyte, had this to say:
USSA is once again and rightly proud of this recognition from the City of Glasgow for our commitment to social responsibility. One of the fundamental reasons commercial services exist within Students' Associations is to provide our members with a safe space to socialise and enjoy themselves - free from the fear that for many comes hand in hand with a night out in other venues. USSA is privileged to have a core component of staff who works hard to ensure the continued safety and enjoyment of our members; and it is them who truly deserve this award. From our door stewards to bar staff, this award highlights that USSA is committed, across the board, to providing top quality student entertainment, in a safe and responsible environment.
