Hi everyone, I’m Lauren and I’m running for PR Secretary of your favourite Derby Uni lacrosse club.
I’ve been a part of the club for a year and half (ish) and it’s changed my entire uni experience. Not only do I love playing a sport I never got the opportunity to play before now, but I’ve met some incredible people who I genuinely believe to be lifelong friends. Why have I told you all that? Good question. If voted PR Sec, one of my key goals will be to help other students get involved and have the same great experience that I, and so many others have had!
This isn’t my first rodeo. Before coming to uni I ran 3 separate social media accounts (across facebook, twitter & Instagram) as well as assisting with Business to Business marketing. All this enables me to promote our club to not only students, but also reach out to businesses and create new relationships, whilst simultaneously encouraging our current partnerships to continue working with us. I also worked as a graphic design/content creation assistant producing a range of different content for social media and print; I can assure you our social media game will be on point!
If elected I pledge to:
- Take our social media presence to the next level- consistent posting, eye catching graphics & topical campaigns.
- Work with the social sec(s) to ensure we are involved in joint socials, charity events, and even organise our own events to get the club more publicity.
- Focus on more PR campaigns to ensure Derby Lacrosse are recognised for what we achieve and the community we’ve created rather than the stuck up posh sport played by rich kids.
Thank you for taking your time to read what I can bring to the club, I've tried to keep it short and sweet (like me). Happy voting!
