Hi! I’m Sanya, your Postgraduate Officer. Welcome to my blog where I take you through my officer journey like it’s a movie (it really is).

Its giving..  Trustee Era

The last few weeks have been focused on my role as a director and trustee of this charity. Governance is a big responsibility but I feel a lot more confident stepping into this new role now.

Two Months In – The Plot Thickens

• Travelling to Birmingham for Trustee Training Day - learning the legal and strategic side of being a trustee, while also networking with officers and trustees from other SUs.
• Attending the NUS Campaign Day at Bath Spa with all the South West SUs – a day of collaboration, networking, sharing ideas, and collectively agreeing we all need more snacks at events.
• Shaping our Top 10 SU priorities, making sure PG needs stay front and centre.

Main Character Moments:

• Sitting on the interview panel with Benji (SU President) and Ryan (CEO) to recruit our next Student Trustee.
• Completing Lumina Sparks training, where we learned about each other’s personalities (spoiler: I’m apparently both “sunshine” and “post-it notes everywhere)
• Filming a lot of Instagram reels for the SU socials (seriously, go watch them) @thesubathpg

If you’re a postgrad, I’m here to make your SU experience bigger, better, and a little more fun. So email me, grab me at an event, or just send me memes.

Until Part 3…

With snacks, spreadsheets & trustee lingo,

Sanya <3
