Batseba Asmelash (she/her)
Hey! I’m Batseba (she/her), a 3rd-year Neuroscience student and your current MH Equality Officer. I am eager to continue this role I am deeply passionate about!
MH is close to my heart (and mind!). As a returning council member with experience in this field, I will use this to drive change and ensure your needs are met.
In my time on council, I have been involved in:
- Pushing integration of sensory rooms on campus as safe and accessible spaces and contributing to the accessibility of new buildings.
- Assisting students in distress by signposting relevant support services.
- Engaging in key student support discussions, including Welfare Forum with all unions, discussions with staff, and Council meetings regarding university-wide issues.
- Supporting fellow Welfare Officers, recognising the connection between mental health and other aspects of student life.
Re-electing me means I will continue to push changes, making differences for student MH. This year, I will continue current work whilst further developing connections and engagement with unions and societies to stay updated with feedback. I’m committed to ensuring you have the support needed for a positive university experience!
Thank you for your consideration. Vote for Batseba!
