Election post

Elected
What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?

The women's network at UCL has an essential role in representing and promoting the interests of 68% of UCL's students, and I hope to continue on the success of previous Secretaries in the Network in ensuring that the Network is active and fully supportive of all female-identifying students at UCL. I hope to work more to promote key dates and events such as International Women's Day, and to work with Women's societies at UCL to promote events for careers and volunteering. UCL has a great community of women and I would help to harness this for the success of all. 

What will you bring to this role (e.g. experience, skills or qualities)?

I have seen the value of a strong community of women firsthand through having the honour of leading the UCL Lacrosse Club this year. The teamwork that women across the club have demonstrated, and the support that they have given to other club members have been incredible to see, and I hope to carry this energy into the Women's Network as Network Secretary. I am also involved outside of university in the All Party Parliamentary Group for Women in Work, and I hope to bring some of the inspiration I have seen from this into the Women's Network. 

Please summarise why students should vote for you.

In short, I believe in supporting all UCL students who identify as women in their time at UCL and beyond into the wider world, and I would like to expand the role of the Women's Network in the life of the average women student at UCL. I also believe that I have the drive, commitment and organisation to execute this role well, and I would enjoy supporting other members of the Network to deliver the best for all women at UCL. Vote Clementine Manning for Women's Network Secretary on the 13th-17th of March and please feel free to email me if you have any further questions at [email protected]
