Hi I’m Izzy! I studied Philosophy and Politics at uni, and am involved in lots of student groups (Vegsoc, Pole and Aerial Arts, Sustainability Society, the Sexual Assault Survivor’s Support). I was also the JCR president of Manor Hall in first year. I have always been involved in activism for students’ and housing rights, climate and global justice; I look forward to carrying on this into my work in the SU and the university.
As part of Transport Month, I have organised a Reclaim our Buses Talk workshop with Reclaim Our Buses - a group lobbying for buses to be taken back into public control, rather than being run by first bus! Come and see how public transport can be better.
I have been meeting with Palestine activist groups, staff and student working groups, and the student occupation. I am trying to protect their rights and lobby the university to be better, through talking to the Vice Chancellor and relevant staff.
Elections happened! I am happy to say that the candidate running for my role that I had endorsed has won! Congrats to Lucy and I can't wait to see you carry on my work next year
