As the current treasurer for Life Science Society I have the experience necessary to help organise and run events successfully as well as manage the finances and ensure the budget is used effectively.

Hi everyone, my name is Ryoma and I’m a first-year Geography student. I am running for Treasurer because I want to contribute to our club by managing the finance. I'd say I'm an intermediate hiker, and my favourite hike so far has been that exquisite the Arran trip. 

As Treasurer I will: 

• Continue subsidising our residentials because they really give meaning to our club as compared to hiking with close friends. 
• Work to widen the range of our club merchandise. 
• Work with other committee members to promote hikes and social events for existing and potential members. 
• Promote our charity events more to increase our public impact. 

Previous experiences: 

• Produced my high school’s Graduation Ceremony and led my seniors to negotiate with other committees and teachers. 
• Co-designed the leavers’ hoodie for my year group. 
• Co-created memory-lane videos. 
• As a senior of the Sports Festival, I co-produced the highlights. 

Thank you so much for reading and feel free to contact @ryoma8417 on insta!

Dear Fellow Hikers,

I'm thrilled to announce my candidacy for the role of Treasurer within our esteemed UCL Hiking Club. This club has been an incredible part of my life, giving me experiences ranging from muddy treks to awe-inspiring encounters with nature, from reaching new heights to exploring vast landscapes. Now, in addition to this adventurous path, I'm challenging myself with the task of the 800km journey along Spain's Pilgrim's Road.

While all these experiences have been truly rewarding, what has made this journey unforgettable are the 'people' of our club. The diverse perspectives and the camaraderie among us have been a source of personal enrichment. Sharing tales of adventure, discussing the nuances of nature, and connecting with such a vibrant community of hiking enthusiasts have made every step of this journey worthwhile.

Now, I wish to take on a new responsibility that aligns with my passion for hiking and my background in financial management. As your Treasurer, I would commit to maintaining transparency and stability in our financial affairs, ensuring that our funds are managed efficiently and effectively, enabling us to enjoy our adventures without worrying about the financial aspect.

Stay tuned for more detailed plans and ideas that I am eager to bring to the table. I am looking forward to infusing a fresh wave of enthusiasm into our beloved club!

Happy trails,

Jimmy Lee

Hiking club has been a very integral part of my university experience since my first year. It has provided me with incredible friendships and given me a chance to get to know a fantastic committee. I am running for treasurer because of my deep dedication to the hiking club and my desire to contribute to its future success, ensuring that others can enjoy the club for years to come.

Hello, everyone! I'm Anna, a third-year student pursuing BSc Social Sciences. Originally from Germany, I have come to deeply enjoy hiking, because it offers me a chance to explore breath-taking scenery, connect with a diverse range of people and always allows a break from London's crowds. Now, I want to give back and contribute to the society. Hiking is a perfect escape from university stress, allowing us to connect with nature and bond with others.

As a team player, I am determined to support the hiking society by planning exciting events throughout the upcoming year. Let's keep this society as a place where members can find respite from bustling London life and create lasting connections. I am running for treasurer, because I am confident my skills will allow me to fulfil this role. I am experienced in organizing and budgeting for trips. I've managed budgets for friends, family, and even organized a bookable tour in my home county Bavaria. I thoroughly enjoy taking responsibility for financial matters and maintaining accurate records.

I am excited about the opportunity to serve as the treasurer, ensuring the society's financial sustainability and success. With my experience, passion, and dedication, I am confident in fulfilling this role. I also hope to hear your inputs for hiking destinations and other wishes! Let's create memorable hiking experiences and build a vibrant community within the society.

Hey, I'm Michael! Over the past year, Hiking club has given me the chance to immerse myself in nature all while sharing the trail with truly amazing people!

As Treasurer I will:

• Promote accessibility by leveraging society funds to subsidise residentials and transport costs for hikes, ensuring that our adventures remain open to everyone, while maintaining our fair and affordable membership fee.
• Ensure continued financial sustainability by monitoring our income, expenditures, and balances, working closely with the President and Committee to ensure efficient and effective use of our resources.
• Streamline administration by managing event tickets, merchandise sales, expenses, and reimbursements efficiently, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free experience for all members.
• Support the Committee in planning and executing residentials, hikes and club events, making sure we maintain high levels of member satisfaction and participation.
• Maintain and develop new relationships with sponsors, while continuing our charity efforts.

Throughout my past experience as a High School student rep I developed merchandise, organised events and managed the student budget effectively. During previous work experience I have helped plan multi-day corporate off-site events. 

This makes me feel confident I can serve effectively as your Treasurer. 



Looking forward to seeing you all soon!
