HI my name is RAKSHITH, I'm a content creator, for NTU and
I'm a second year mechanical
engineering student.
Today.
I'm here with Lincoln, who's a good friend of mine, and we run
the Drone Society here at NTU.
So tell us something about the drone society and what
we do here.
So the drone society is built to get anyone and as many
people as possible as we can involved with drones in
any possible way.
Thanks to the NTSU.
We have many, many drones, including these ones.
During events such as Give It a Go week run by the NTSU,
We give everyone a chance to come flying drones.
Yep, this is a very good opportunity for students to try
out something new.
So at the give it a go there are various different events
that happen across the week, to some of the events are try a
drone kind of event.
So we're doing an FPV race today for all the students
who come down.

So it's 6:30 now and I'm heading for the last.
Give it a go event.
And this one is kind of different and
it's quite special.
It's the Light Night at Nottingham.
Theyve put up a sort of Light show around and a member from
the stuidents union is taking us around to have a look at the
different lightings around Nottingham.
So let's go, have a look and enjoy the lights.
The Give It A Go.
Events are a great way to meet different people and
make new friends.
Apart from just society's opening up their events
for non-members, the student union also organizes various
trips around Nottingham and to other cities.

So well, I'm in the changing room and I'm getting ready for
my final, Give It A Go event and that's archery.
I never tried that before and I've always wanted to try it so
lets go and give it a go.
I'm not going to lie.
The Archery is not as easy as it looks.
It's a very interesting and challenging sport and I
absolutely loved it.
It took me a few tries to get a hang of it.
But this is some sport that I probably should be practicing
more and trying it a lot more.
Not that I'm a sports member.
Hi, my name's Hywel, I'm the SWO (safety and wellbeing
officer) for the archery club.
And I just really want to promote it.
I highly encourage people to join it, especially if you've
never done it before.
If you want more information, go for play for fun
sessions on Sundays.
And we do have more information on our Facebook website
and Instagram page.
So feel free to check them out.
A membership fee includes any gear that you need to rent some
of the bows or anything so you don't need to
bring anything beforehand.
You don't need to own anything.
All you have to do is bring yourself to a session and
you'll be good to go.
The Give It A Go week saw so many different societies open
up their events for everyone to get a feel of the events
that they organise.
From craft to sports.
There's a society for everything if you would like to
visit a give it a go event.
Fear not.
They're still running.
Visit Trentstudents.Org For a really long list of events,
most of which are free, and don't forget to sign
up for them.
The event are running until the end of May.
The students union even do trips to cities like
York and Oxford.
At a very nominal fee they organize a bus to take all the
students to the city.
It's a great way to meet new people, make new friends
and discover a new city at the same time.
So do check out their events and well, if you've visited a
give it a go event do let us know your thoughts in
