Wellbeing Officer

   Hoor Pathan, Wellbeing Officer 2022/2023  Course: LLB Law with Politics Hometown: Leicester How do you think your friends and family would best describe you? My friends and family would describe me as ambitious, funny, considerate, and passionate. I take pride in my personal and professional achievements, and I love to help others.   What inspired you to become an Exec Officer? What inspired you to become an exec? From a very young age I have been involved in various projects and roles focused at empowering young people to shape the services they use, including working with European Parliament to engage young people in decision making. I was very inspired by the Union and previous officers’ work to ensure students are involved. I hope to build upon it and put students at the heart of decision making.    

What can you offer students in your role? Students can rest assured that I will always fight their corner and encourage them. I hope to be a listening ear to your concerns and relay these to decision makers to make change happen. I can offer students my experience of working with international governments - taking those skills and ensuring students have the best possible experience at the University and within the Union!      What is the most important change you want to make this year? Undoubtedly, the biggest challenge the student community is currently facing is the cost of living crisis. I’d like to ensure students are supported with initiatives like a food bank and support resources. I also want mental and emotional wellbeing, and the freedom to be yourself, to be at the forefront of all our services - so students feel supported in their life choices. I want to empower you and take you on this journey with me - please feel free reach out to me at hp362@leicester.ac.uk     Hobbies and Interests: I love Football - you'll find me at most Leicester City games cheering on the Foxes. I’m also a massive Formula 1 and Cricket fan. I really enjoy cinema trips with family and friends (mostly watching Marvel movies) and I’m currently catching up on Disney+ shows. I also love music (mainly pop) and going to concerts whenever I can!
