Matt Taylor
Role: President
Studying: Economics
What I Do: I oversee the CU events and make sure that all the ideas come together, generally just keep an eye on everyone! I am also the point of contact as the representative of the CU. My aim this year is to really see God become a presence throughout the campus. I want to offer everyone the opportunity to hear and respond to the fantastic news of Jesus Christ. I love it that God could radically change the whole campus on his own, but he is using us as part of his plan.
Random Fact About Me: When getting out of bed in the morning I can pass out on demand.

Ginia Tammadge
Role: Secretary
Studying: English and American Literature
What I do: I do a lot of organisation! Inviting people to speak at our meetings and booking rooms to hold them in, sending out weekly emails to our members to keep them up to date with what's going on and sometimes acting as a first point of contact for people who want to know more about us and answering any other questions they may have. I also take notes in committee meetings and try and remind people of what they should be doing during the week!
Random Fact About Me: I'm a neat freak! And I actually find cleaning quite therapeutic, a bit like Monica from Friends!
