Manifesto

I am currently an Education Representative for the Faculty of Science, which means I represent quite a few thousand students at University level to staff who have the power to get things done. So far I have managed to fulfill nearly all my manifesto pledges and have promised to complete them all be the end of term. I think this record speaks for itself and I'd like to expand this work to the Students' union across all faculties.

If elected, I will:

  • Work to reduce the carbon footprint of the Students' Union and advocate the University to do the same.
  • Make sure that Bulmershe and Henley Management College students are represented fully and fairly by the Union and at all Union events and campaigns.
  • Campaign for and lobby the council to designate The Hub as a Polling Station for elections.
  • Endeavour to get tickets for the Union events (including student nights at 3sixty) available for purchase online from the RUSU website.
  • Propose and follow up a central recycling point on campus for all recyclable materials and set an example by getting the Union to use it by recycling all waste.

Three Main Points

  • Reduce the carbon footprint of the Union
  • Properly represent students regardless of campus
  • Get more Union services such as ticketing available online
