Liberation Reps

Liberation Reps are regular students across UCB who volunteer their time to represent the views of people who share similar lived experiences. Liberation Reps help ensure the Guild champions the diversity of our student body and create an inclusive culture for all students.

What is a Liberation Rep

A Liberation Rep is a student volunteer who works with the Guild for a period of one year or more. If the Guild is working on an inclusivity-related campaign, or if the University is seeking input into changes that affect particular segments of the student body, our Liberation Reps are a key group to be consulted.

If you care about championing the views of students’ lived experiences and want to campaign for a more inclusive university/college experience, becoming a Liberation Rep could be a great opportunity for you.

How much time will it take?

The role is voluntary, and it is generally expected that it will take a few hours every month. If you put yourself forward, you will be a course rep for that academic year.

Will I receive support in this role?

Yes! The Guild will put on a number of training sessions to make sure you feel like you are able to make the most of your role. A lot of the skills will be transferrable, ranging from policy writing to public speaking, and will no doubt be useful in whatever career you choose to pursue in the future.

I would like more information before I put myself forward?

If you would like to ask any questions please feel free to pop down to the Guild office in Moss House and ask for Hamza. Alternatively, you can email hamza@ucbguild.co.uk and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
