Hello everyone!
My name is Tobias (Toby) Smith! My pronouns are he/him. I am a current third-year BSC Psychology Student, Course Representative, Student Council and Academic Board member.
The foremost key aspect of this executive role is to help students. Due to my currently held positions, I am in the best possible place to voice any concerns that are brought to me or the union. The ability to help people become the best version of themselves, is ultimately the reason I chose to come to university. This role would further extend my passions.
Throughout the pandemic, the issues that have plagued students and staff alike have been easy to notice. Although I love this university a great deal, I know it is not perfect. Therefore, I feel becoming the next Union Development Executive will allow me to improve the place I call my home. If elected, I pledge to continue the goals of the current Union Development Executive, as well as new specific goals. These being:
- Continuing the great work the union is doing, and further facilitating work between the executives, combining our collective wisdom to create the best student experience and union possible.
- Ensuring communication between staff and students are improved even further.
- Improving the environmental policies within the university.
- Running more course representative training.
- Getting student feedback and improving what you feel needs improving.
To conclude, and make a long story short, I will represent your ideas, thoughts and feelings and will do my best to make this union, university, and your student life better. I hope I have assured you that I am the best candidate for the role, and, if so, please consider voting for me!

Your union, by you, for you.
