LUUHC Election 2024!

Nominations to run for LUUHC’s next committee will open at 9am Monday the 4th of March and will close at midnight on Wednesday the 20th of March. This window is your opportunity to nominate yourself for the committee positions ahead of the voting period. You will need to write a candidate statement to tell everyone why you are best suited for the role, and you will also be expected to make a speech on the evening of the AGM as well.  


It's election time again and time to welcome a new committee to the hiking club. There is a wide array of positions to run for, all with varying responsibilities. The 10 roles are:

- President

- Secretary

- Treasurer

- Trip Secretary

- Transport Secretary

- Social Secretary

- Gear Secretary

- Web Secretary

- Welfare Secretary

- General Committee

Additionally, as we don’t want the roles to seem daunting, please don't see the system as rigid or completely set-in-stone, in the past, roles have been moved around slightly with new roles created where needed. If you have any questions about where you might be able to fit into an LUUHC committee, or are even planning on co-running with another student, let us know, and we’ll help you out along the way! If this is going to be your committee, it should work the way you want it to!
