Hi! I'm Zara, a current fourth year medic and I'd love to join the Leeds Friends of MSF committee next year.

The work MSF do is endlessly inspiring. Wanting to volunteer for them was one of my goals when I first went in to medicine, and being able to support them by contributing to this society would be a privilege. Unfortunately, many medical students are unaware of the importance of MSF and I'd love to work with you all to change that :)

My favourite MSF event has been Beats without Borders and it's an event I would love to help bring back, alongside lots of other fundraising and educational initiatives. I have previously helped organise large scale multi-society fundraising collabs so I would be able to bring this experience to next year's committee for even bigger and better events. I'd also love to introduce a mock OSCE and teaching series to put us on the map (and WhatsApp chat!).

Thank you for reading and I hope I can count on your vote :)

Hi!
I am Noah and I would love to be your engagement officer for the year of 2026/2027!

I plan to engage with various societies and student groups across Leeds in order to get people from various academic backgrounds involved with FoMSF! I also will be be able to connect the society with SfGH Leeds (Students for Global Health), for which I am president of next year. SfGH also emphasises the imperative for involvement outside the spheres of clinical medicine.

I’ve spent the last year intercalating in MSc Health and International Development at LSE, connecting with a super academically diverse cohort, coming to understand the need for multidisciplinary approaches behind medicine in resource-constrained settings. I am very excited to engage with the Leeds student body outside of the medical school!

Thanks for your vote!

Hi! My name is Umi, I’m a 4th year medical student running for general committee as part of leeds friends of MSF. Last year I was treasurer of the society - this is equipped me with the skills to be able to organise the myriad of events we put on! Including some of our big events such as ‘beats without borders’. I loved how the committee worked so collaboratively together and I hope to bring this back next year.

The work MSF do is so important and prevalent in medicine and society in general. I would love to be a part of a team who raises awareness for the incredible work that the charity do; I hope to bring new ideas to the society next year including global health talks and new fundraising ideas that everyone can enjoy!

Please vote for me as part of the general committee!

Umme-Haanee Lokat :)
