Georgina Wilson-Cousin

As a mature UG I physically blended but mentally did not. Thus started collaborating and strategising with staff, students, organisations and alumni to enhance Mature Students' university life experiences. As a PG I love animated, quiet, and relaxing events which I am keen to share with you.

As President I would strategise for efficient engagement methods for the new committee, to contribute towards sustainable continuation during their studies. Since the on-going running of the society is paramount for increasing the diversity of quality UCL Alumni and enticing prospective students, I would set facilitate and support effective handovers.

Relevant Experience:

  1. UCL Autism Society Chair 2023 - 24
  2. Brunel University SU Disabled Students Officer 2021 - 22
  3. Brunel University Mature Students' Society Chair 2019 - 22

One agenda, to explore London through; intercultural eating, seasonal and networking events.

Since arriving at UCL I have had the pleasure of attending a number of Mature Society social events and have met some interesting people.  In particular, I have also met the current officers, Christopher Johnson and Colleeen Jones, and want to support the work they have started with the Society, that they continue to do. 

I have just started at UCL and am studying for an MA Archaeology. I join as a 55 year old who has just left a 30+ year corporate career in marketing and communications. I really see the need that the Mature Society has for people like me, as well as those who are younger, but still above undergraduate age. I was surprised that the Society is so new with more and more older people coming into higher education. I beleive that the Society should act as a central resource for meeting like minded people, providing peer help and guidance as well as a sense of fun. It should aim to do a few things well.

By standing as President I hope to be able to work alongside other officers of the Society to enhance engagement and activities among members. I also aim to be visible among the membership.  In this way I believe I can make a difference.
