Voting is now closed and the results are in.

On Friday 3rd March at 6:30pm we announced the results for the Student Elections 2023. The Student Elections are an important time of year where the study body elects the leaders for next year. As a democratic and student-led organisation it is extremely important that the student body choose who leads them and the student body. 

Scroll down to meet your new Sabbatical Officer team for 2023/2024.

A huge thank you goes out to every single one of the 2465 students who voted in this year's Elections and a massive well done to all of the candidates who have worked so hard this week to campaign for your votes.
