A STUDENT union bar in Worcester has been named as one of the nation's best.
The Hangar bar at the University of Worcester in St John's in Worcester has been recognised as one of the top student venues in the country by Best Bar None (BBN) and the latest NUS Trade Awards.
The Hangar, which is run by Worcester Students’ Union, has been awarded Gold status by BBN, a national accreditation scheme which recognises and rewards responsible premises, as well as those which make a positive contribution to the night-time economy.
It’s the seventh consecutive year that The Hangar has been awarded Gold accreditation by the BBN, and this year they achieved second place in the national BBN award.
The Hangar has also been announced as a winner in three categories in the NUS Trade Awards: Impactful Collaboration, Student Feedback and Input, and Customer Safety.
The Impactful Collaboration award was given for the team’s work alongside the University of Worcester’s International Team in hosting a diverse range of cultural events for the students.
The Student Input and Feedback Award recognised student-staff member Ella Page for her work in creating the venue’s cocktail menu and developing its social media presence.
The Customer Safety and Comfort award was given for the commitment of the team at The Hangar to creating a welcoming environment for students and ensuring their safety on nights out.
