What is Student Council?

Student Council is one of the most senior committees in the Students' Union. Its role is to set Union policy and to hold your elected representatives to account. They are there to represent the areas they were elected into, both the position on Student Council and on University Committees. Contact details for your representatives can be found by clicking on the image below.

 

 There are 12 members who have full voting rights and the Student Council Chair. However, students are welcome to attend as observers and participate in the debate. If you would like to run for a position on Student Council, head over to our Elections page, or if elections season is over see our guide to co-opting below. If you want to join the meeting as a student observer and take part in debate, please contact ben.sanders@wrexham.ac.uk.

Who Represents You?

 

Can I apply to be on Student Council outside of Election Season?

The short answer is yes! Through a process called co-opting. 

However, you must first ask yourself a few questions.

Do you want to make a real difference in university life? Are you looking for more life experience whilst at university, or feel an urge to represent your fellow students or group? Well, your path to doing this has just got a lot simpler.

Click HERE to read through our guide ensuring you follow all of the steps and you could be the next Student Council representative.

Student Council will give you experience in areas such as meeting with external benefactors of the SU, sitting on leadership and course boards, and holding important power over decision making by writing and voting on policy. 

It can even be a first step into a full-time University role such as President or Vice-President of the SU.

Not to mention it looks fantastic on your CV!
