Societies race: Andy Hallet


Societies are crucial for a healthy Union, and I would act as someone who knows when to interfere and when to leave societies alone. Some societies are already thriving; they should receive more independence and their expertise being passed on to other societies. Those that are struggling will benefit from my policies of more budget application assistance, more training for society committees and the opportunity to join any society at my office hours rather than merely at Freshers’ Fair.
I would encourage greener advertising, pushing societies to use the internet and facebook more in place of papering Houghton Street. We need something of a welfare state so as to enable all societies to be the backbone of the Union they can, and should be. There is such thing as a society, so vote for many great ones. Andy Hallett No. 1 for Societies officer – for the societies you deserve.
