Your manifesto

Your manifesto is the most important element in your election campaign. It explains to students why you want to represent them and why they should vote for you. Your manifesto is what they see when they come to vote so it is important you take time to plan, write and perfect what you want to say - especially as you only have 250 words. 

Within your 250 word manifesto we recommend you include up to three ideas for what you would work on if you were elected. We suggest a headline and then a summary explaining why it is important.

Alongside your ideas, remember that students need to know a bit about you, and why you are the best person to represent them. If you have any questions, or would like any further support, please contact the Elections Team.
