As your Students' Union President if elected I aim to,
- Resourcing Activities
We need to develop and expand our Activities strategies and structure to meet the growing demand of students.
- Democratic Activities infrastructure
- Establish perk systems for Sports and Society members, working with members of the Gym, SU Shop, to ensure integration, and discounted & easy use of these services.
- Expanded Activities Team, in terms of funding, but also staffing and administrative support
- A larger budget for Societies for events and campaigns
- More parking space for our students
- Training and support for Programme Reps. Media and Society Officers
- Your Degree in Practice
Universities should also serve as a space for individual skill and practice development, as well as academic. I propose three ways to do this:

- Create Student Investment Fund
- Proactive Solidarity
We have a socially responsive duty as an academic institution that our education is accessible to the most vulnerable, as well acting as platform for social and political change in our local and wider communities.
- Maintain our identity as a strong, campaigning Union
- Lobbying to bring back the Postgraduate Work Study Visa for International Students’, as well as defend our rights to rent without demonization
- Lobby for housing rent caps, as well as comprehensive tenant’s rights
- A Democratic Education
I will continue the fight for a student-centered education that engages, reaches, and supports all our student body.
- Continuing to Liberate the Curriculum through reading lists, assessment and feedback methods, and pedagogical approaches
- Tackling the Black student attainment gap, which currently sits nationwide at 20%
- Integration of Mature, Part Time, Student Parents, International, and Postgrad students into the Students’ Union, through developing services and spaces that meet their unique needs.
