Printed media at the Union
The Union's printed media covers all areas of student life, from Pugwash with its features, news and reviews, to Purple Wednesdays with club and society news, match reports and in-depth features, and the essential Pompey Guide which introduces students to the great city that is Portsmouth at the start of each year.
Pugwash magazine
Pugwash is our 48-page glossy magazine, published 5 times a year. It's a great way of communicating with fellow students in Portsmouth - you can write anything, from our more tongue-in-cheek regulars to ground breaking features about your take on student experiences in Pompey.
We’re not just looking for writers and typists though - there are plenty of other very important ways you can contribute to the magazine: you could help with the hours of graphic design that go into each issue of the magazine, take photographs for the features and news, or put your illustration and design skills to use by creating some stunning artwork!
If you fancy being part of the Pugwash team all you have to do is either join up at the Freshers' or Refreshers' Fayres (held at the start of each semester) to sign up, or contact the Media & Publications Sabb officer, here.
Purple Wednesdays magazine
Purple Wednesdays is our weekly clubs and societies magazine. Content is written by the clubs and societies themselves, and this year more than ever we’re looking for deadline-loving people who can help us edit and lay out the magazine every Tuesday night (and then help us down at the Union bar afterwards, if you’re into that kind of thing…!).
Pompey Guide
Published once a year, the Pompey Guide is your essential guide to everything going on in Portsmouth. Look out for a copy at the start of the year, or pop into the Sabb office in Gun House at the Union if you're desperate for a copy!
