Hii,
I am Lonny and I study Politics and International Relations. Here’s a bit about me: I am a skier, dancer, and passionate pretzel and beer lover (Augustiner ist das Beste!)
I'm running for Social Welfare Officer because I'm enthusiastic about creating events and initiatives that strengthen our community and foster new friendships. I'm imagining us organising events like a beer pong competition, engaging pub crawls, or fun themed parties. But that's just a start.
My role isn't just about planning fun events. I'm also here to offer support on a more personal level. Whether you're feeling homesick, grappling with academic pressures, or facing personal challenges, I'm here to listen and support you. University life is a unique journey, filled with opportunities and challenges. It's a time for growth, learning, and creating memories that last a lifetime. As your Welfare Officer, I want to ensure that this journey is as enriching and enjoyable as possible for every one of us.
I'm looking forward to the possibility of working with all of you, hearing your ideas, and creating a fun, caring community here at the German Soc.
Thanks for considering me as your Social Welfare Officer. Let's make our time at university not just about study, but about building a supportive and fun community.
Best, Lonny

Hallo zusammen :),
the reason why I'm running for Welfare Officer is pretty standard but important to me: I know how difficult the university experience can be, and I'd like to offer a shoulder to lean on for those who need it.
I'm not German but I grew up in Frankfurt where I went to a small international school, and the transition of moving to London and going to a big uni was not an easy one for me. In my (thus far) 2 years at UCL, you could say I learned the ins and outs of the Student Wellbeing services -- if you need help that I can't offer, I know where to guide you.
That being said, I'm also always happy to just talk about whatever's bothering you and be a judgement-free ear. Can't promise I will keep up fully in Deutsch but I'll always try my best! Depending on member interest I'm also planning to host small biweekly welfare sessions to hangout or study, whichever you prefer :)
Thanks for your time and see you next year!
