Advisory Boards

Leeds University Union currently has four voluntary Student Advisory Boards focused on specific areas of our work: Digital, International Students, Sustainability, and Wellbeing.

These boards bring together students with a particular interest or expertise to help guide our thinking and inform key projects in these areas, meeting throughout the year and consulting with the Student Exec and specialist staff within LUU.

If you are interested in joining an Advisory Board, you can register your interest below. Typically, we recruit new Board members in April/May, though we may have opportunities at any point during the year.

The Liberation and International Student network are a dedicated team of student representatives who help to make LUU more inclusive, representative, empowering and fun for Liberation and International students. There are 7 members representing LUU’s Liberation Groups (Women’s, Trans, Asian, Working-class, Disability, LGBTQ+ and Black) and 7 members who represent international students. The team has an intersectional approach when working together to hold events, run campaigns. The LISN group are here advocate for the student communities they represent, so if you have an idea, concern or feedback that you would like LUU or the University to hear, they will Listen. They are supported by the Equality and Liberation Exec Officer, the International and Postgraduate Exec Officer and the Political Engagement Team.

The Wellbeing Advisory Board aims to improve LUU’s approach to student wellbeing by ensuring that everything at LUU is impactful and accessible for every student. Some of the issues the board will tackle are mental health, safety initiatives, the cost of living crisis, destigmatizing taboos and belonging at university.
