President
Joe Cormack
My Manifesto
Advocacy: I will be a visible, active voice, campaigning locally and nationally to ensure NTU students’ voices shape decisions on issues such as cost of living, housing, student finance, public transport, and the student experience. Pushing for meaningful change that improves students’ lives.
Safety: I will make student safety a top priority. Advocating for safer public transport, supporting welfare schemes across Nottingham’s nightlife, and continuing action to prevent and respond to sexual violence. Every student deserves to feel safe and supported when studying, working, or socialising.
Opportunities: I will break down barriers to ensure opportunities are inclusive and accessible, expanding accessible sport, improving awareness of opportunities, and ensuring students from all backgrounds feel represented and empowered at NTU.
Education: I will push for fair, accessible, and transparent education by strengthening student representation, improving communication and addressing inconsistencies across courses.
Officer Accountability: I will ensure officers are open, transparent and accountable. I will improve how officers communicate, introducing a clear, shared platform for updates, progress and campaigns, as well as empowering student leaders to hold officers accountable.
So, do you want someone who’s got your back? Vote for Joe Cormack.
VP Education
Katie Booth
My Manifesto
Putting Student Voice First - Always
As VP Education, I will put student voice, concerns and ideas my top priority.
I will do this by increasing student representation and making sure students' voices are heard regularly and take action. I will increase the inclusivity of teaching practices, making learning accessible and increase support for underrepresented students, students with disabilities, and students with mental health issues.
I will work with staff to increase students' academic confidence, and allow all students to grow and meet their potential, advocating for clearer assessment feedback and increased transparency, with better communication between staff and students.
I will boost student voice and spotlight key issues through student surveys and campaigns, such as Accessible Education Week and Deadline Stress Week to support students through their NTU career.
I promise to be approachable, active and a listening ear for all NTU students.
Representing the Students of NTU.
VP Societies & Sports
Angeline Smith
My Manifesto
I’m running to be your next VP societies and sport. Both societies and sport are a big part of NTU. I want to implement better interaction between societies and sports clubs, intergrating both together to help with engagement across all campuses.
I also want to work with NTU Sport to embed mental health awareness into club culture and committee training, making sure all committee members feel well equipped in managing pressure and supporting club members. I want to advocate for inclusion for all and trans-inclusive sport, working with NTU Sport to ensure facilities are accessible and welcoming for all students and prioritising student feedback from all communities so that delivery of programmes are suited towards everyone.
Having been on a sports committee for three years I’ve worked closely with BUCS which has allowed to become familiar with their guidelines, I'll work with NTU Sport to ensure clubs and committees are well supported with clear guidance and that all clubs are represented.
I’ll build on the president’s network already in place for sports clubs which i’ve been involved in this year as club president, and work on expanding this network to integrate societies and sports clubs together building on that relationship.
VP Community and Welfare
Mischa Dooley
My Manifesto
My name is Mischa and I’m running to be your next VP Community and Welfare. My 1st few months as your 25/26 VP Education have taught me that not only do I want to help make a change in students academic lives, but to their student experience as a whole. I want to help foster a student experience that is inclusive, caring and supports students in making their time at NTU seamless and enjoyable.
If elected I aim to:
- Continue improving and promoting nighttime safety initiatives for all students, continuing to work with affiliated companies and more throughout Nottingham.
- Champion mental health initiatives, supporting and developing current work in conjunction with students and staff.
- Increase awareness of support available to students surrounding housing issues, and helping students understand their rights.
- Boost visibility of vital student services, such as societies, the global lounge, quiet spaces and others to help students feel less isolated.
- Continue tackling barriers to learning pushing for consistent academic standards across all schools.
Students deserve a university experience where they feel safe, included and respected, where barriers beyond their control don’t affect the quality of their experience.
Remember, Don't be a Fooley, Vote for Dooley!
