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

As a first-year international student, I know how important it is to feel welcomed and connected in a new environment. As Community Officer, I hope to create a friendly and inclusive atmosphere at Astor College where everyone feels at home, no matter their background. I want to organise a variety of events, both social and cultural, that help residents meet new people and form meaningful friendships. I also hope to encourage open communication and collaboration among residents, so that everyone feels their ideas are valued and that Astor is a supportive and enjoyable place to live.

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

I bring enthusiasm, empathy, and strong organisational skills from my experience in Girl Guides and the student council, where I helped plan team-bonding activities and school-wide initiatives. These experiences taught me how to lead collaboratively, listen to others, and create inclusive spaces where everyone feels involved. I am approachable, reliable, and eager to make a positive impact. As Community Officer, I will bring energy, creativity, and dedication to planning events that connect people, celebrate diversity, and make hall life enjoyable for everyone.

Please summarise why students should vote for you.
