Tennis Club: Welfare Officer

Hey, I’m Rebecca from LUSL! I’m running for Welfare Officer this year. I've been here for the past year and I want to give back to the society that's become an integral part of my life!  

My past experience

• I was awarded the Service Award for Tennis in high school for my contributions beyond expectations. Similarly, I promise to give my all to UCL Tennis, and go the extra mile!
• As the Class Chairperson in my high school, I promoted the welfare of my class, making sure everyone felt included. I also planned fun surprise celebrations, e.g. for everyone's birthdays and Teachers' Day.

My present motivations

• Tennis has made me feel warm and welcome. I want to continue this legacy and give back, and stay grounded in the society.

My future vision for the role

• I hope to lay out and implement a clear and actionable inclusion plan to ensure that everyone feels welcome! 
• I hope to gather more information on how to promote greater welfare. I hope to set up a continuous feedback channel to see what is being done well, what can be improved upon, and what new welfare events members would like to see.  
• I hope to liaise with the social secs on additional welfare events. Some preliminary ideas include picnics, tennis watch sessions, and more! 

As a dedicated member of the university's tennis society, I'm interested in running for the position of welfare officer. With my experience in tech support, I have developed strong communication skills and a passion for helping others. I believe these skills would be invaluable in supporting the mental health and wellbeing of our tennis society members.

I'm committed to promoting positive mental health and creating a supportive environment where everyone feels valued and respected. I understand the challenges and pressures that come with being a university student and a member of a sports society, and I'm eager to use my skills and experience to help others.

Overall, I'm excited about the opportunity to run for welfare officer and to continue supporting our tennis society community. Thank you for considering my candidacy.
