Why vote for William?

During my two years as Course Rep, I have never missed a meeting. I have worked closely with other reps and the student body to make sure concerns are heard, represented, and acted on.

I am not afraid to challenge issues when needed. I have negotiated alternative dates for the Sea Survival course after poor communication, kept my cohort updated about important dates that were not well publicised, pushed for a proper dietary risk assessment for the Millport field trip, and built strong, productive relationships with staff through SSLC meetings.

As President, I would focus on improving communication between staff and students, making timetabling clearer and more reliable, and introducing standard procedures for module layouts, deadlines, and new assessments. Students deserve consistent information, fair organisation, and a representative who will follow through.

I have the experience, commitment, and confidence to make sure your voice is heard.
