Leeds Conservatoire Students' Union

📣 SU COUNCIL HANDOVER 📣

A couple of weeks back, we hosted our SU Handover; A day for your incoming SU Council Reps to meet outgoing reps, share advice, wisdom and generally get to know each other!

We had a bangin' time reflecting on this past year and making exciting plans for the year ahead - including a discussion about what your next Welcome Week should look like!

To round off the day, we popped to Leeds City Museum to see the fab Leeds Conservatoire x Leeds Music scene exhibition (which is only on until end of June, so get on it if you fancy going!) and finished the day with an escape room, of course.

We're very sad to say goodbye to our amazing 25-26 Council Reps, but we know the SU is in good hands with your lovely incoming 26-27 Reps! 💗

👀 What do you want to see from your SU this September?
