Elected

As charity officer this year, I have enjoyed every aspect of my role. We began the year with a charity fair to raise money for Ocean Stars which supports community projects in Sri Lanka.

I have also been involved in the general organization of events such as brainstorming games for our meet n greet games night, running our freshers fair stall and joined the trip to Warwick Cricket and Sapphire.

I have decided to run for Events Officer to gain experience having a different role within the society and as I will enjoy bringing new event ideas to life.

If elected, I would encourage future events such as:

  • More intersociety events- sharing our culture through fun events similar to the ladies cultural night where we collaborated with the Afghan, Kurdish and Indian societies
  • Organising more catered events- listening to society feedback to have more events in line with member preferences
  • Bigger events- starting our own signature event that we can invite other universities to and planning more big society trips

I hope to use the experiences I have gained being on this year’s committee to be a valuable member of next years committee so we can keep celebrating what it means to be Sri Lankan!
