Carlotta Giacchero

Hi! My name is Lotta, and chances are you will have seen me in the Barbell GC, at the GymNation sessions, or asking freshers if they're interested in WL or PL at Fresher's fair :)

As secretary this year, I have exemplified the characteristics I want to bring to the role of president: dedication, passion and commitment. Among other achevements, I have chased up on PL BUCS enrolment, championed for participation in the Move Her Way initiative, and jumped in to help when other committee members needed an extra hand. My role has allowed me to learn quite a bit about how the club works behind the scenes, and I'm confident this knowledge will let me represent you well as president.

Discussions have already started both within the club, with future committee members, and outside the club, with possible external collaborators, to bring innovation to Barbell while dealing with the particularly restrictive budget we have been allocated this year. In particular, bridging the PL and WL branches of the club is a goal of mine, and my existing relationship with members on both sides shows promise of achieving this. And of course, I will continue to champion for inclusivity in these sports I love so much.

I appreciate your time reading this, and your trust in me should you decide to vote for me.

There's a Lotta stuff to look forward to :)
