My main aim for this year is to spend as much time with you, the students. I want to listen to your voice and see what you want to get from your students union. If you are interested in and of these areas, it doesn't matter if you don't have any experience, please just get in touch. The students union door is always open.
Chief Executive

Associate President Diversity
Ipyana, Jawanza
My name is Jawanza, your AP Diversity. I love Diversity and that’s why I am here; because I like to have a range of cocktails through out my night rather than a vodka coke (metaphor alert). I love the city of Leeds, in fact I want to petition that all cities in the country be named after it, but I am also involved in other projects like getting free kids meals in our union which for some odd reason is the more successful of the two.
Ever want to chat about diversity and equality stuff? You can find me in the exec office at civic, and you can’t miss my desk as it is covered in all kinds of junk like a Hungarian Gourd and Chinese scrolls.
I also like to attend the diverse range of city events Leeds has to offer, be it Leeds Pride (which had 200 students and a float from the union on the march) or the West Indies Carnival which is the longest running one of its kind in the country.
Check out our projects, forums, contact me or find anything else on equality and diversity at www.leedsmetsu.co.uk/diversity
