My priorities

  1. Increase Income for clubs- Increasing sponsorship/ fundraising to give members more value for membership 

  2. LJMU Collaborate- Encourage integration between sports and societies, increasing sense of belonging 

  3. Mental Health First Aid- Offer MHFA training to support physical first-aid. 

Hi, my name is Josh Darley. I am running for the position of VP Activities.   

If elected I would aim to:    

- Objective 1 - Help sports/societies increase sponsorship to give them financial freedom and give their members more for their money 

- Objective 2 – Increase integration of student groups by encouraging taster sessions and other events where clubs can try another activity, making friends in the process 

- Objective 3 – Get Mental Health first aid training on the same level as physical first aid 

Who am I and Why do I think I can do this?  

LJMU Cricket President 

Co-Founder of LJMU Running Club 

JMSU Student Staff + Events Admin. Helping Organise Sports Ball and Varsity. 

I have experience in finding sponsorships and liaising with external companies for a range of events. Raising over £13,000 in the last few years as part of sport teams. 

Starting a running club has helped me interact with a wide range of sports and societies seeing first-hand the benefit of clubs/people coming together. 

Mental illness is probably more common than physical today’s world. The importance helping our members is massive. 

My dissertation is looking at sense of belonging within LJMU. I will use my findings to see how we can help LJMU students feel part of the community.  

I think these aims will have a positive impact on student’s confidence, mental health ultimately making them more rounded people ready to take on the world.  

Please Vote for me on march 10th-13th!
