Candidate for the position of Vice President Societies and Communication
Be A Pal & Vote For This Gal
Hi!
I’m Jennifer and I’m running to be your Vice President of Societies and Communication! I’m a final year student of Business and Management, President of the Pole Fitness Society and Resident Assistant at the Hollies Campus.
I'm completely behind the Student’s Union’s aim of making a positive impact on the life of every student at UWE as I know that being at University is so much more than just getting a degree; it’s finding yourself, discovering hobbies and making life-long friends. These years should be some of the best of your life and your SU has a responsibility to help you get the most out of your time at university.
For me, the Pole Society has helped me develop skills in teamwork, people management, leadership, inspiring motivation, event organisation, teaching and so much more! Being involved in a society is a great platform to improve your time here at UWE and gain some serious life skills. I think all societies could adopt a culture of innovation, learning and development to give more back to its members and other students too!
If you vote for me I pledge to work towards:
Facilitating more opportunities for you to get involved: I think we can improve your time spent at university by giving societies more opportunities to increase member participation. We can do this a number of ways but I think it’d be excellent if societies collaborate more so more students can benefit from joint ventures!
Continued improvement of SU services for Societies: Your voice needs to be louder in the SU so we can work specifically on improving the things you need to make sure you having the best time at UWE is easy.
More one-to-one support: Society development meetings for committee members are great in identifying ways to improve value for members for the year ahead. But there should be more regular catch ups with the SU to keep development on track, at intervals which suit you!
I have first-hand experience in running a truly successful society and I can attribute our success to us actively seeking more communication from the SU and working with other societies. Vote for me VP Societies and Communications so I can share my success with all societies, establish key practices for success from the inside out and encourage community between societies and the SU.
