Clara Nouvelle

Hey everybody! I’m Clara and I’m really excited to be running for welfare and volunteering officer of Dance soc. This society has been a massive support for me over the past 2 years. I’ve made incredible friendships and been a part of such rewarding productions and events that I want to contribute to that for all old and new members next year. As well as welfare hour where I would be a friendly face to come talk to every week (snacks on me), I’d love to coordinate with the social secretary and organise some low-key events and outings so we can all get our minds off uni for a bit and meet new people. This could be museum visits, testing out cute cafés and such : ) I know first-hand how overwhelming the juxtaposition of uni and dance can be sometimes (even if we love it) so I definitely want to make a point of checking in on everyone and helping out where I can.

I’m also very excited about the prospect of organising a volunteering project! I was part of it in my first year, teaching dances to elderly people in Holborn community centre and it was an amazing experience. I’m also currently a volunteer for St John’s ambulance, so I hope to use my volunteering experience to organise something fun and rewarding! I would love to be a part of a committee with this shared passion for dance : )
