Sabbatical Executive

Sabbatical Executive consists of the 6 Sabbatical Officers. These are full time positions that start each summer and last 12 months. The sabbs do not study but live and work on campus, to improve the Union for everyone.

Any student can run to be a sabb, from freshers to final years. People run to be a sabb for all kinds of reasons, but are united by just one – to make a difference. Each sabb has set responsibilities and they meet as a Sabbatical Executive on a weekly basis to make important decisions.

The elections are held in the two weeks before Easter break. Each candidate completes a manifesto about why you should vote for them, all the people standing for election are allowed to actively campaign to win the votes of students. As a result campus becomes awash with posters, badges, t-shirts and crazy activities, in a bid to make you more aware of each person.
