Maria de Leon Eddy

Bioengineering (UG): Year Four Wellbeing Representative

Hi there ! I am Maria!

I would like to be Wellbeing Rep because university should be about more than just academics: everyone deserves to feel supported and part of a community. As someone who has experienced wellbeing challenges while at Imperial, wellbeing at uni has become important to me. I would love to give back and meaningfully improve student experience. I care about your wellbeing and care to make a difference (I'm on your side).

I will be very sympathetic to your concerns and will act promptly to ensure your issue is accommodated as much as possible.

Here are three key priorities:

1. Listen, Represent, Act

Create an open and approachable space for students to share their concerns, suggestions and experiences.
Bring student feedback to departmental meetings and push for practical improvements.
Keep students informed about the issues raised/progress made.

2. Promote Wellbeing

Raise awareness of the mental health, physical health and financial support available to students.
Help students access the right university services when they need support.

3. Strengthen Community

Promote wellbeing campaigns, social events and initiatives that help students connect and support eachother.

My commitment: I will listen without judgement, represent your concerns responsibly, and work to turn your feedback into action. I may not have every answer, but I will always do my best to help you find the right support.

Your wellbeing matters. Your voice deserves to be heard. Let's make our university experience better, together.
