“Being the Women's Officer has not only allowed me to blossom as a person but has given me the opportunity to support a community that has done so much for me. my favourite thing about my role is that you can make the role your own, whether this is through campaigns, events, or the Instagram account. It has been incredible to on events and use my voice to raise the concerns/issues of my community.”

REGISTER TO VOTE
Self-define today so that you’re eligible to vote…
Like most (if not all) Students’ Unions across the country, when it comes to gender, race, sexuality, and disability we operate a self-definition system. We do this because some of us might not self-define with the same gender or sexuality as when we first started university. This becomes important around SU Elections as we want to limit the voting of who should lead communities to those that belong to that community only. Set your preferences below.
