Are you thinking about standing for election, but want to do something with a smaller commitment than a full time Student Exec Officer?  Well why not consider standing for one of the positions on our Union Council.

Very briefly, Union Council is a group of students, who are elected each year, who come together to create policy, make change and campaign for a better student experience. The roles are all part-time commitments which you must take on alongside your studies (i.e. you must be a student here next year to stand). Some have a specific focus, such as Women's Rep, others have a more wide ranging portfolio of responsibilities.

All the positions offer a level of responsibility and experience that you will find hard to match elsewhere, so if you are successfully elected you will be paid a £400 honorarium that you will receive in three installments across the academic year.  They're also a great chance to get more involved before standing for a Student Exec Officer role next year.
