About Me
Hi, I’m Maia and I am your SU President!
My role involves representing your views to the University and lobbying for changes which improve student life at Royal Holloway. I support the sabbatical officer team and ensure we work together to amplify your voices. I also play a large role in the Students’ Union’s governance and sit on College Council, the highest governing body of the University.
My main manifesto points include:
- Ensuring the extensions and extenuating circumstances policies properly support students
- Reviewing security within SU venues
- Ensuring the accessibility benefits of online delivery remain
- Decolonisation
At the heart of my manifesto is inclusion: I want to ensure all students feel welcome and comfortable on campus by lobbying for a more supportive mitigating circumstances policy, making sure you feel safe in our venues and working with the SU and College to set up paid focus groups/speak to culture and faith societies so that lived experience is at the heart of solution-making.
As well as using my voice to speak up for students in College meetings, I want to bring the SU to you by speaking to you on campus and regularly updating you on our work through Instagram and blogs. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you would like to pass on some feedback or chat about how to improve student life!
The Role
