The Whistleblowing (WBU) channel is an independent unit within NUS that allows staff, students and the general public to raise concerns and feedback. All suspected or actual wrongdoing reported will be investigated once the case has been substantiated. WBU will ensure all whistleblower are protected from reprisals when the cases are reported in good faith.
