About Me

"Hi, I'm Nadia! I've just graduated with an English Literature degree. In both first and second year at Newcastle, I was part of the Northern Angels cheerleading team, which was incredibly fun and I met the best people doing it! However, it also made me aware, that particular sports/extra-curricular activities aren't taken as seriously as others, particularly if participants are mainly women. This is part of what has driven my passion for representing women, people of colour, and the LGBTQ+ community on campus. I'm excited to use my role to enhance equality and wellbeing for students. "
