My name is Ritik Mehta, and I am excited to announce my candidacy for the position of Deputy President at Digby Stuart College.

 As a student deeply passionate about enhancing the university experience for all, I am eager to share my vision with you.

First and foremost, I aim to raise awareness of the abundant opportunities available to students at Roehampton University. Did you know there are student jobs available within the RSU, Union Bar, Bystander Intervention, College Community Leaders, and various ambassadorial roles? These positions not only offer valuable experience but also provide decent pay. Additionally, numerous volunteering opportunities and societies are waiting to be explored.

Did you know the university also hires students and fresh graduates for its own admin and educational offices?

I aim to increase and create new opportunities available for the students.

One of my key objectives is to foster closer collaboration between staff, students, and alumni by utilizing all forms of social media to promote these opportunities.

A union that approaches you to resolve your issues

Gone are the days of students having to seek out the RSU for assistance; under my leadership, the union will proactively reach out to students to understand their needs and concerns.

To feel safe and comfortable regardless of Age, Race, Religion, Gender and Sexual Orientation

Furthermore, I am committed to creating a safe and inclusive environment where every individual feels valued and respected, regardless of their age, race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. As Deputy President, I will ensure that all student voices are heard, working tirelessly to address their concerns and advocate for their needs.

A Union that is accountable to you

Lastly, I aim to improve the presence and accountability of the Students Union by providing regular updates on the union's initiatives and efforts to enhance the student experience. Together, with the collective efforts of the student union, staff, and students, I believe we can continue the remarkable progress that our university is making.

With your support, I am confident that we can build a stronger, more vibrant community at Digby Stuart College and Roehampton University as a whole. Thank you for considering me as your Deputy President.

Let's work together to make a difference!
