Student social action: UCL Consultancy Challenge

Last Friday, Students’ Union UCL invited me to London to judge the final presentations of the UCL Consultancy Challenge. I spent the afternoon enjoying presentations about sustainability in urban gardening, social media solutions to volunteer engagement, redesigning training programmes, and designing new fundraising initiatives for charities. As their consultancy specialist judge I sat alongside senior staff from UCL and we had to decide on the winning project.

From Student Opportunities to Trusteeship

We exist to challenge the image of what a trustee should look like and to empower organisations and individuals to see the value of young people. This is something our movement has in common with Students’ Unions, and particularly student opportunities teams: every day we see the value of young people, and have full faith in their ability to add valuable insight to important discussions.
