The president leads the Union’s work in campaigning and lobbying to protect and extend the rights of Swansea students. Tom ensures students have their say in the Union and help lead our campaigns. He is also busy chairing the trustee board and working alongside the other officers to shape Union policy.

“This year will hopefully culminate in Swansea University Students’ Union being rated the best Welsh University experience.  We are repositioning the services that we provide, so that they can do more for you.  Our democratic decisions are, for the first time going to be available online for 24 hours after every Student Forum, and our very first Union Alumni Association has just been initiated.  To say I am excited to be leading our Students’ Union this year, is a massive understatement."

Results!

Good morning to you all! I hope you had a lovely weekend and are potentially enjoying some very relaxing time off!  Last Thursday night saw both our annual AGM and last Forum of the term.

Alongside these individuals, five others were automatically nominated for Inidivual Contribution Awards at this year's 'Big Awards Party' by our Trustees Board.  They were; Sam Booth, Tom Hoyles, James Short, Susan Turner and Ghatan Al Gahtani.  We look forward to receiving even more nominations as nominations have just opened!  Click here:
