Bioengineering (UG): Year Three Wellbeing Representative

Hi, I'm Georgie - im a 3rd year MEng student on the mechanical stream and I'm running to be your wellbeing rep.

I'm sure many of you can relate to the sentiment that 2nd year was tough. I definitely found it hard and overwhelming at points, as so now as we go into 3rd year I want to ensure everyone knows how to, and feels able to access support.

As your wellbeing rep, I will ensure we continue to have regular wellbeing events such as puppy therapy, socials, movie nights and more. I will also aim to arrange chances for students to get some free snacks or helpful products like toilet roll and sanitary products. Finally I will aim to make sure everyone feels comfortable accessing support. I have had experience applying for mitigating circumstances, and had meetings with the disability service and wellbeing/mental health team so I know what the processes are like for these.

As your rep, I hope to be a friendly, nonjudgemental, approachable face. Whether you need signposting to university/external resources or just a chat about exam stress, I'm here for you.
