Tell students about yourself
Hi, I’m Ellie, a final year Education Studies – Psychology Student from Yorkshire. During my time at University, I have devoted myself to Welfare, building my way from Welfare Committee for Snow in my first year, to Disability Agent and now, Senior Welfare Officer. Alongside this, I have spent my time in both DU and Snow societies, becoming a vocal member of the Code Red Club and rebuilding Snow’s Students with Disability Support Group.
As an officer, I would be a champion of inclusive change, engaging students in decision- making through regular communication outlets, fostering a collaborative environment where everyone's voices can be heard. My approach would focus on empowering students to vocalise their expectations of their university experiences. Through my work in welfare, team leader experience and degree, I have both leadership and communication skills with a theoretical understanding on how to bridge gaps between students and administration to create a resonant campus community. My experience in student welfare and understanding of successful policy would make me an effective and responsive Education Officer.
