Hi!
My name is Lucy and I am running for General Secretary of PsycSoc.
A little bit about me…
I am in Second Year going into Third Year in September and have been part of the PsycSoc committee this year. The experience of being on committee has been entirely rewarding as well as challenging at times.
As Sports Secretary, I have been busy planning netball sessions and matches. PsycSoc entered the Semester 2 league and managed to place second! The team was inclusive with everyone being offered a chance to play for free once a week.
I am therefore keen to work alongside the new Sports Secretary to promote a healthy lifestyle whilst studying at University. No matter what your skill level, PsycSoc netball has a fun and friendly vibe making you feel part of a team.
Having worked alongside committee members this year, I understand how working as a team is important to drive the society forward. If I am selected, I am keen to work together with the other members of committee to promote a safe and fun environment within Psychology.
I believe that societies are the best way of meeting alike individuals at University and having joined several this year, I have made some of the best friends. I especially plan to promote the society more to first years to reduce the daunting experience of moving away from home and into an environment where it is likely they have no familiar faces to depend on.
I consider myself an organised individual with good communication skills with both students and members of staff at the University. This year I have had to communicate with the Union on multiple occasions which has given me a good understanding of how societies are run.
I believe that this makes me an excellent candidate for the role as I have already proven my capability and am keen to continue gaining a family, not just a degree.
