JCR Committee 2024-25

Hi everyone! I’m Ellen, a second-year historian and JCR President for this year! I’ll be running the committee and representing students on college committees such as Governing Body, as well as working with other members of staff to make sure every student is getting the most out of their experience at Tit Hall. I’ll be focusing on how we can improve the day-to-day ways that students experience college, and I’m also passionate about access and inclusion. I’m open to hearing any suggestions or concerns about what’s going on in college, so feel free to drop me an email any time!

Hi everyone, my name is Zeeshan, a second-year natural scientist, and am JCR vice president along with Teymour! I will be helping to manage the JCR committee, and also sit in on some college committee meetings as well as helping to run freshers week next year. After being here for a year and a half (somehow!), I have a good understanding of how difficult Cambridge life can be. Therefore, in this role I’ll be focussing on promoting positive changes to college that will help to make daily uni life a little easier for everyone. If you ever had any ideas as to changes that could be made within college, feel free to reach out to me via email or in person!

Hey there! I’m Teymour (he/him), another second-year NatSci, and alongside Zeeshan I’ll be your JCR vice president! In this role I will be attending meetings with College governing body, running elections for future JCR officers, organising freshers week for next year’s cohort, and more generally supporting the President and the senior members of the committee. I think that the collegiate system we have in Cambridge is very special: having important decisions devolved to the colleges means students have more power to change things for the better. I will strive to make Tit Hall a fun, safe and welcoming place for all our members, and would be more than happy to hear your suggestions for this. Please send me a message or find me around college if you would like to have a chat! 😀

Hey everyone, my name is Georgia (she/her) and I’m this year’s women and non-binary welfare officer :) Myself and Taylor will be making sure that your wellbeing is supported as much as possible, as we know how easy it is for students to forget to look after themselves in an environment such as this, so we’re here to remind you to take that time out, have a cup of tea (potentially from our lovely new urn at welfare tea every sunday!), watch that film, or start that project that you’ve been longing to try! We will be hosting many welfare events this coming year to allow you to connect with fellow tit-hallers, as well as maybe find a new friendship at another college! But, we are also available on a more personal level, so if ever you need a chat about whatever’s on your mind, we will welcome it readily, offering advice or support where you need it, or just generally being there to have a bit of a rant to - everyone needs one now and again! So please don’t hesitate to get in touch to have a chat or suggest an event that you think will boost your wellbeing, we’re here to make sure you feel seen and heard and want to help you however and whenever you need it.

Hi everyone, I’m Taylor (he/him) a first-year doing Asian and Middle Eastern Studies (Japanese). I’m very excited to be your new male and non-binary welfare officer. Starting on a less serious note, please come to welfare tea every Sunday at 2 and don’t forget to send in any biscuit requests! Both Georgia and I are passionate about building a healthy and integrated community here at Trinity Hall, even if it is through something as simple as some free snacks and drinks. It is also important to note that we represent you, the student body, in meetings with the people who run the college, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re encountering any challenges in college life. I’m always available for a chat; whether it is something small bothering you or you are going through something more serious, please get in touch.

Hi! I’m May (she/her), a first year Vet Med and your Green & Ethics officer for the year!
