Election Time (Again!)

GCU Students' Association have focused a lot on fair representation recently. We were one of 12 UK students' associations to take part in the NUS Diversifying the Movement project; we supported fair representation at NUS UK conference; Student Voice passed a motion to ensure gender balance in future NUS delegations and ordinary members for next year; and we're currently advertising for a Women's Representation intern to research structural barriers to women's participation in the SA and at GCU, to further develop the work carried out during the Diversifying the Movement project.

For these reasons, and because I've worked with them both over the past year and I think they'd both make amazing VPEs, I'm recommending you consider voting for either Anne-Marie Docherty or Danielle Garrett in the by-election for my position.

I've no doubt all of the candidates would do a great job if elected, however I feel that Anne-Marie and Danielle offer the best chance to maintain the momentum on fair representation within the SA, as well as being outstanding at representing your views on the student learning experience at GCU.

Publicly endorsing these candidates was a tough decision, and to be honest does anyone really care who my preferred candidates are? However in order to build on our successes of the last year and keep up the good work, I felt it was worth putting it out there.

So check out their manifestos and those of the other candidates, and whatever you do MAKE SURE YOU VOTE - your vote is your voice so it's vital you make your voice heard - voting is open until 12noon tomorrow, Friday 11th July, and can be accessed HERE.

Keep an eye out for one last blog before I finish up next week.

Cheers.
