How did you first get involved or how did you find out about it?
I attended the annual dinner organised by GCU PakSoc in July 2015, where I met the committee members. They invited me to help them with the society proceedings in the capacity of a Treasurer. I attended the training provided by the Students’ Association and it has been a fun sail since then. With the support and help from Students’ Association, we managed to organise an acoustic gig and a trip to Glencoe, both of which were highly successful and amusing.

Why did you decide to be involved?
I always had an urge to go an extra mile in university. Managing my time between society’s work and my studies makes me feel organised and constantly engaged.
