A collaboration between the Library, LUSU and the Accessibility Community has opened a repurposed space to help individuals with sensory needs. 

Students are invited to nominate themselves for positions within College JCRs and PG Board, as well as positions of Student Trustee and International Students’ Officer. In this article, we want to explain the nomination process: how to do it, what to consider, and what happens next. 

We know that nominating yourself in an election may be something you have never done before or come across again in your life after university. Hopefully, this will be a great first experience! 

Being Trans+ at University comes with an array of struggles, one of them being feeling affirmed in your gender identity. This can come at a high cost to students; getting clothing, compression wear, affirming wear, make-up, travel costs to appointments, etc.

We are excited to announce upcoming election for your College JCRs, PG Board, the International Students’ Officer, and two Student Trustee positions.
