LGBTQyiu: the officer for you

Election post

Status
Elected
What will you bring to this role (e.g. experience, skills or qualities)?
  • Currently serving as LGBTQ+ Network Welfare Officer; working closely with the current officer to bring continuity and new ideas
  • Youth Ambassador for an LGBTQ+ charity working on allyship, community and education; taking many skills workshops

I believe the skills I gained through the workshops and training in this role will become applicable if I am elected. I love discussing LGBTQ+ issues and campaigning for our inclusion in all spaces, and I seek to work collaboratively to ensure everyone is included. I will bring campaign action for the network, ensuring we stay active in supporting our rights

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

Some of the things I want to achieve are:

  • Greater interdepartmental collaboration on LGBTQ+ issues
  • Regular LGBTQ+ friendly careers events
  • A variety of social events, from walking tours, pub crawls, and group outings
  • Volunteering and charity opportunities
  • More funding for the Gender Expression Fund

I wish to campaign on ensuring that students across all faculties feel safe and welcome at UCL. LGBTQ+ students should feel safe from discrimination, and I want to ensure intersectional issues on ethnicity, gender, and socio-economic status are addressed to create a better community and increase engagement

Please summarise why students should vote for you.

Vote for me as a well-experienced student leader and champion of LGBTQ+ rights, committed to going above and beyond to ensure that all groups feel safe and have a sense of community at UCL. Working to get inclusivity in all departments, networks, and societies through collaboration in events and policy. I will work with other members of the network to ensure that events are run regularly and are tailored to the needs of all LGBTQ+ students, and ensure that the network is campaigning for your rights beyond the SU; the wider London area and UK & greater representation of the TQ+ community at UCL

LGBTQyiu: the officer for you
UCL is celebrating its 200th birthday in 2026. What do you think UCL will look like in 200 years time?

As a multi-disciplinary university, I think we will get our name out there! UCL will probably go through another logo change in that time :/ But I hope they change some of the buildings because some aren't very nice-looking. Hopefully, the area around UCL will be pedestrianised, so we can all sit down, with some covers in some areas, so we can get outdoor study time. I think we will definitely climb the rankings, and more student accommodation will be built as we have way more students than we do now. Main Quad renovated for the 50th time as well.
