The first Guild Council of the year...
Last night was the first meeting of Guild Council (and also the first official post GC curry of the year- see photo)
It was a good meeting we had some good debates- and it finished at a reasonable time- an advantage that we are rarely awarded. It was also great to see some new faces in the room.
Guild Council voted on 11 motions all together, but I am most excited about the following...
-> to call NUS Extraordinary conference, and vote in favour of the reform proposals
-> To stock One Water in our bars and to lobby The Spar, and other outlets on campus to stock One Water and One Condoms (woop!)
-> To endorse the NUS 11 Point Manifesto on Sexual Health
-> To look into creating a Guild letting agent
-> And also an enforcement of having an affiliated Taxi company, and relaunching the night bus!

Don't forget the new HE funding policy too!
Hey, wat's one water and one condoms? Would be interested in talking about it on burnfm.

One Water is a not for profit Water. 100% of the profit goes towards funding playpump systems in Africa- enabling people to freely access clean water.

The same company- The One Foundation have also created One Condoms, where 100% of the profit goes towards funding HIV projects in Africa.

Last night Tom Guise from Conservation Volunteers and Sam Harrow Biosciences proposed that the Guild stock these products, in addition to lobbying the Spar and other outlets on campus to stock them too! Very exciting!
