Society of the Month and Spotlight on successfully implemented, now with designs and winners for each month so far. Winners on achievement wall.
Societies wall and achievements wall completed
Increased the number of societies nights to one per month during term time, including the use of Mermaid Bar and student group activity e.g.- Live Music. Unfortunately due to lack of uptake this has been reduced to one again.
Tier Structure written up and feedback given by staff and students, this feedback was taken into consideration and the structure has now been approved by SGX and renamed the 'Recognition Structure'. I will be making the process more public and transparent to students in the coming months and sharing it amongst staff to ensure support for the structure after I leave.
This structure will be finding its feet in the next year, however points will be able to be accrued from the time of public release and results will be released to all groups who participate at Guild Awards 2020.

Increased satisfaction in student groups

More successful applications

Mega and mini forums replaced with relevant workshops, which are proving popular, examples of some we have run so far are grant applications, AGMs, and sponsorship.
Sponsorship fair date to be booked for term 3, currently scouting businesses to attend continually working on processes
Edited the way financial processes such as claims forms are handled to streamline the process. SGX elections have successfully gone online. Groups complaints procedure successfully updated and improved and should be approved at next SGX. Spent a day working on editing and re-thinking groups processes (merging and removing some processes, simplifying others), this work is now being written up and most of it should be able to be implemented relatively quickly.
Better relationship formed with Redbrick, building on trust towards implementing a proofing process which is better for both the Guild and the group.
This process was approved at Audit and Risk committee and we are now working on writing up an adequate policy to take to insurers.

Planning in process for tour of careers network and meeting staff (to improve links and aid streamlining plans)

This work is ongoing with the guild to find the right balance of careers/employability between us and the university, but I am in contact with university staff around ways to help students to understand and communicate employability skills learnt through their activities
