Holly Tyack

Your next vice present of student opportunities! 

Hi, my name is Holly Tyack, I’m a third-year Social Anthropology and Sociology student.  

Being part of a society and getting involved in activities outside my course has been an amazing part of my university experience. I am running for this role because I want every student to experience this, ensuring that there are inclusive, accessible extra-curricular opportunities available. 

 

I have leadership experience running the Ballroom and Latin Dance Society as a coach and secretary. In these roles I have successfully pitched and implemented ideas, helped double our active membership, secure a sponsorship, and represent the university at multiple competitions. As a fellow student and committee member I can represent your voice which is why you should vote for me.

Campaign Points:                                          #voteforHER 

 

H -  Help Improve Clubs + Societies. SUBU offers 83 societies to get involved in, yet only 22.3% of students are involved in 1 aspect of SUBU.  I want to increase participation, supporting clubs and societies by implementing a faster, easier room booking service, creating additional social sports clubs, providing more mirrored spaces, and sourcing affordable coach and minibus hire. 

 

 

E -  Expand Events on Lansdowne. I will make the Lansdowne campus feel more social by adding additional seating, creating a larger SUBU presence, by organising more events that don’t clash with timetables and better advertisement of the ‘what’s on calendar’ so all students are aware of what events are happening.  

 

 

R – Real Placement Support. I will boost your employability by expanding the number of placement opportunities – especially paid ones! Work experience relevant to your degree is crucial to getting the job you want. To achieve this, I will network within Bournemouth to create more placements and graduate opportunities, whilst promoting the existing career support and gradual skills hub.
