MY PROMISES/PLEDGES TO STUDENTS

All elected Officers create a number of Promises that they make to students. Their reports to Student Forum are based on these promises.

PROMISE 1: SUPPORTING WOMEN'S FOOTBALL IN PLAYING COMPETITIVELY

My first promise is to help support the growth of Women’s Football at Newman University. In addition to this, providing the relevant support for women to play competitively in the BUCS League. One way that I am going to achieve this is by increasing the amount of people who attend Women’s Football. I will be doing this by using social media and posters around the University Campus.

PROMISE 2: TO INCREASE ATTENDANCE TO ALL MEN'S FOOTBALL TEAM HOME GAMES 

My second promise is to increase the attendance to all Men’s Home Football Games to support them further in their BUCS league. I plan to achieve this by promoting all fixtures on social media to allow there to be more representation of our Men’s Football Team while creating a larger support base so sports at Newman University increases

PROMISE 3: TO PROMOTE THE WOMEN'S NETBALL TEAM 

My third promise is to promote the Women’s Netball Team further to help advance the team hopefully getting them to play competitively against other Universities. To do this I plan to get into contact with other Universities to organise friendly matches that can help develop our team while also trying to recruit new players by promoting training sessions and taster sessions to try and get more people involved in sports

PROMISE 4: PROMOTING MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS AND WHERE TO FIND HELP

My final promise is to promote Mental Health Awareness and the places you can get support for issues that you may be struggling with. I aim to promote this by talking to different charities that may be able to provide us with some posters and information boards to put up around the University Campus. I also plan to promote onsite support that students and staff are able to receive to support their wellbeing. 

SPORTS & HEALTH TERMS OF REFERENCE (JOB ROLE)
