If you have been living under a rock, maybe you haven't seen who won the CSU Student Leader Elections, or maybe you didn't even know they were happening at all! Well, they have been and gone. For the past month, we have been running our elections to elect the new full time officer team for 2025/2026, as well as electing our new Student Council members.
For those who haven't been living under a rock, all 2,218 of you who voted (!), you cast 15,340 votes for 27 different candidates, which equates to 15% of the student body here at the University of Chester. That might not sound big, but it is a great stat to us.
So, without further ado, here are the results for 2025:
Full-time officers
CSU President: Lily Watson
VP Education: Adedayo Adebisi
VP Student Life: Will Gaines
Student Council officers
Transgender & Gender Diverse Students' Officer: Jason Ellis-Platts

International Students' Officer: Faseeh Ur Rehman
Mature & Caregiver Students' Officer: Cath Challoner
Open Seat: Alicia Ndlovu
Disabled & Neurodivergent Students' Officer: Bronwyn O'Neill

They all take office on the 1st July 2025 - until then, keep tuned to see what our outgoing officers get up to.
